William holloway-born Exeter devon C1805 and wife May born lympstone C1803. Children Ellen 1846,George C1842,Maria,1837,Jane C 1844. Have thewm in 1851-St thomas exeter and I know Ellen married in 1868 the other end of Town-and living in 1871 at St mary' steps (as Ellen Sargent)-I'm trying to track the family from 1851 to 1871 to see if they all went to there or not-or any other children of theirs. Please could someone look for them for me? and address and occupation ? Many thanks if anyone has time x

Not sure if thats my ones or the ones you found me just now-That was Mary and I need May-but theres a Jane in both!! AGH! rack street is right! but I think thats the other ones-the dates don't match with my ones from the other end of the town! only thing is thought this road ajoins where my ellen Holloway (Born 1846) lived in 1871 when she was married to John sargent-Not sure if they are the same family with the dates wrong! or whether its cousins-Oh **@'?*$# ! Janes date of birth is correct but Mary is too young-although I suppose she could be a second wife.?

Image could be May. It's not easy to tell. btw - that's 1861. There's no sign of any of them in 1871. Jane could be married though.
