RICHES, EDWIN THOMAS (CURL)
GRO Reference: 1840 J Quarter in NORWICH Volume 13 Page 268

In that case I would think that the death in 1875 for Robert and the 1873 for Sarah are the best options but you may need to buy the certificates to be 100% sure.

Hi Catherine,
Yes, Robert Riches Cabinet maker, Lakenham is the one.
The Ancestry tree is wrong.

In which case, this death would probably be more appropriate:-

Deaths Sep 1873 (>99%)
Riches Sarah 66 Norwich 4b 107

............makes date of birth 1807/08

in which case, the dates of death on the tree on ancestry may not be correct.

From 1881 census this looks to be the Aaron Riches:-

Name: Aaron Riches
Gender: Male
Baptism Date: 2 Sep 1820
Baptism Place: Wymondham, Norfolk, England
Father: James Riches
Mother: Sarah Ferrers
FHL Film Number: 1471055

so 1881 looks to be another Sarah Riches, so that death is probably not correct either.

The only death for a Sarah Riches between 1881 and 1891 is this one:-

Deaths Sep 1886 (>99%)
Riches Sarah 71 Norwich 4b 92

.........although it would give date of birth as 1815 ????

Possible death for Robert

Deaths Sep 1875 (>99%)
RICHES Robert 75 Norwich 4b 102
