John Ranson of Wattisham

[hookleg]

I'm wondering if anyone can help. I am looking for the name of John's wife. John Ranson was born in Wattisham in about 1823. I believe he married a girl called Rachel who came from Hoxne in about 1850. They are living in Combs at the time of the 1851 census and have a 9 month old daughter called Ellen (born in Stradbrook).
