Again, very many thanks. This is coming together very much better than I could have hoped. I am beginning to think that maybe the older siblings did emigrate. I know that Emma Charlotte Fooks Hallett married Christian Pedersen in Australia and had a large family - of whom the eldest, Conrad Pedersen, was my grandfather, who was born in Sydney. That family then came to England and lived in Liverpool where they are found in later censuses., before returning to Australia in 1891

Have tried to find marriages or deaths but still haven't found anything as yet.

Thanks - it certainly begins to look that way. Charlotte was born in Tiverton, as were the younger children. The family comes however from Dorset I believe.

Gael from Down Under - many thanks for that. This is beginning to come together. I wonder what happened to the older children.Frances, Robert and Susan?

Ginny - thanks. That would explain why Charlotte had moved in with her brother on the farm. Especially with all those children. I am still looking for the older siblings though. I wonder what happened to them?

Were they from Dorset?

It looks as though Charlotte may be a widow in 1851. By her name is only a single letter but to me it looks more like a "W" rather than an "M".

A copy of this birth cert should definitely confirm who were Emma's parents were:

Births Sep 1841 (>99%)
Hallett Emma Charlotte Fooks Tiverton &c 10 249

Deaths Mar 1846 (>99%)

HALLETT Peter Tiverton 10 199

Thanks Jonesey - that is where I had got to. It seems though that the older children and father Peter have vanished.

1851 just for reference:

Peter and Charlotte Hallett are found in the 1841 census living in Tiverton with 5 children.

By 1851, Charlotte is living with her farmer brother Charles Fooks, the two youngest children from 1841 plus two further children born later, namely Emma and Martha. One of these, Emma, I believe to be Emma Charlotte Fooks Hallett who emigrated to Australia and Married Christian Pedersen. I would love to know what had happened to Peter Hallett, her father, and the other 3 older siblings of Emma, namely Frances, Robert and Susan. Did they emigrate earlier with dad Peter to prepare the ground for the rest of the family to follow? They seem to vanish from UK records after the 1841 census.
