I can't find any more data on the other children and it's quite possible that William was a Home child, especially if John was widowed. Perhaps Ernest and Beatrice decided to go find him ?

Continuing my line, (which I know about for certain), William (born 25 Dec 1840 in Mendlesham Suffolk died 21 Feb 1908)  m Mary Chatfield, abt 1863. They had 11 children in Mendlesham, Suffolk.   Elizabeth Jane 1863 m Henry Fecamp William 1864 m Clara Jane Bryant Frederick John 1866 (moved to Australia in 1890's) m Annie Alice Johnson Robert 1867 (my gg-grandfather) m Laura Hart Walter 1868 (also moved to Australia in 1890's) m Mary Ann King

Annie 1890 m Gregory Durrant

Ada Mary 1872 Kate 1875

Alice 1877 d 1878 Minnie 1880  

I have dates for all the above if you need them and also details of children etc. Robert and Laura had a daughter, Roberta b 1891 d 1920. Unsure if they had any more children. Roberta m Godfrey Foster. They had 2 girls, Phyllis b 1914 d 2001 and Edith Lilian (my grandmother) b 1916 d 2000.
