Hi Linda, It does say on the 1951 census that William was a widower. I'll keep looking for her. Tina

Just a thought.... Looking at the way the 1851 has been laid out it is possible that Rosa is the daughter of Matilda, William's sister/sister in law? She is shown as married. Chris

Hi Linda. This looks like the marriage you are looking for........ William Fisher--- Elizabeth Chaplin in 1833 in Easthorpe Essex which is very close to Birch. You find this info at www*essex1841.com Click on Essex & Suffolk 1841.(com) Search Engine & enter Fisher in the box & scroll down to the marriages. Hope this will help. Malcolm PS. It looks like William had a sister calles Marian.
