Hi. Thank you. I have just realized that I did not show the married?? name for Nancy. It is Wiles and this is the surname of the children. Sorry about that. They were all from St Ives as far as I can tell.
Thank you Shirley for thedneath record for Nancy.
I have them on the 1851 census, when Nancy is a widow. I hope somone may know who her husband was so that I can make further progress. Ethel.

thank you so much. this is a great help. The different spelling makes such a difference. I know the name Quick. it comes up in 1920 as the middle name of one of the children. name Annie Quick Wiles.

going to off computer for a week but will check back to all of you when I get home. Ethel.
