Thank you Julie and Jim
Yes those 3 of the family were born in Thurlton Norfolk . i t seems that they then moved to Herringfleet and i knew 8 more children were born there and now i have confirmation of Benjamin that makes a total of 12
I will now see if anyone can find Benjamin on any census
Thank you so much for your help

Is this your May & Ann on the 1841 census?
It states that May, Ann and James were not born in the county of Suffolk.

Somerleighton, Suffolk
May Farrow (male), 76, wheelwright, N
Ann, 71, N
James, 50, N

Benjamin Farrow, 35, Cl? lab, N

Can't find birth of Benjamin on BVRI but there is this marriage:
