Carole, despite loads of searching I can't find them in 91 either. However, a quick look at "Search Trees" on here for John Speed, b 1838 +/- 5 years, Newark brings up quite a few names.
Might be worth having a look?

Can't find this family in 1891, can anyone look for me please.
John and Elizabeth Speed, he was born abt 1838 in Newark Notts and she was born 1832 Newton on Ouse Yorkshire.
They were most likely living at 3 Queen Arms Yard, Paddington in London and will probably have children with them. John was a horsekeeper.

Thanks very much
Carole
