As there are no up-dates to your request I don’t know what info you have found, but hopefully you would have found something by now.
I have found the following info from the census records and you were correct in thinking that there were more children.

John ASH b~1830 Holme, married ‘Jul-Aug-Sep’ 1858, Selby, Yorkshire;
Jane NEWTON b~1838 Wistow, Yorkshire
Their children:- Mary Jane b~1859 Holme, Yorkshire

John b~1863 Holme, Yorkshire
Thomas b~1865 Holme, Yorkshire
Alice b~1867 Holme, Yorkshire
William Henry b~1869 Holme, Yorkshire
George b~1870 Holme, Yorkshire
Annie b~1872 Holme, Yorkshire
Clara b~1874 Holme, Yorkshire
Clarissa b~1876 Holme, Yorkshire
Laura b~1878 Holme, Yorkshire
Frank b~1882 Goole Yorkshire

In 1861 Census,
John is listed as ‘Farmer of 13 Acres’, address:- Water End, Holme on Spalding Moor
In 1871 Census,
John is listed as ‘Farmer of 12 Acres’, address:- Water End, Holme on Spalding Moor

In 1891 census,
Jane is listed as ‘widow’, address is Parliament St, Goole
With son John, Railway Fireman, William, Railway Shunter, Laura & Frank as scholars

William was a “Railway Goods Guard” & married to Sarah A. b~1874 Flaxfleet, Yorkshire
& had 2 daughter Laura 3yrs & Lillie 8mths.
Frank was in lodging in Goole, and was a Engineer Fitter.

John’s parents were Samuel b~1802 Walkington, Yorkshire
& Alice b~1801 Beverley, Yorkshire
And he had a sister Jane married Mr. MITCHELL and had a daughter Ann b~1860

Jane’s parents were Thomas NEWTON b~1796 Wistow & Sarah b~1805 Selby, Yorkshire

Hi, I am looking for information on Ash's from Holme in Yorkshire (also known as Holme on Spalding Moor). John Ash was christened in 1830 his parents were called Samuel and Alice. John married Jane and they had the following children - William, George, Annie, Clara, Clarissa, Laura and Frank (all born between 1869 and 1882 in Holme) there are possibly more children. Any help would be appreciated.
