I am researching the Fry family at the moment.

Theodore Fry b 1836 Bristol, parents Francis and Matilda Fry. Theodore married Sophia Pease in 1862 Darlington.

According to the 1871 census Sophia has a son called John Pease born 1864, 2 years after the marriage.

Can anyone put any light on the matter?

Any help would be appreciated
