I have come across some notes mentioning Warmfield, St Peter concerning the Wells family referring to Charles Derby (Wells presumably) with wife Elizabeth Wilson married 24.11.1803 at this church. There were children Jane 1803, Charles 1806 and Marianne 1807. Is there any sign of them in Kirkthorpe in the 1841 census please?

Many thanks,
Frances
