Henry married an Isobella Martha Wright, born c 1803, from Reading; that's all i have. I have Henry's line down reasonably well: he had 2 sons and one daughter. Henry jnr married twice; is first wife died very early in their married life. He later married Emily Jacklin in the late 1870's. She gave him 6 more children, the eldest of whom died as a child. Isabella jnr married George Barrett and they had 4 children and lived at length in Bethnal Green, London. George, the youngest is my great grandfather. He died at 53 in 1893. George had one son, George William my grandfather, who in 1912 emigrated to Australia. I am given to understand that there may have been a daughter born to George and his wife Jane Kemp (nee Green, from Essex), but i'm not sure of her details as i have not been able to elicit anything from the censuses of BMDIs. I'm in Brisbane, Australia and would love to make contact with any of his line. Kind regards Julie
