Presumably, you have found them as a couple on a census...........are there any children? If so, when was the eldest born? Reg |

How about this one? William Shephard 1843 Apr-May-Jun Wellington Som Devon, Somerset Mary Ann Stoake 1843 Apr-May-Jun Wellington Som Devon, Somerset Volume: 10 Page: 807 Only one other name transcribed from the page.........so there is room for doubt Martha Gollop The birth cert of any of the children would confirm...........assuming the births were registered!!
