Wow ;D ;D ;D
that is them.
this is great as the two children are from his first marriage !!
I did not know about them before.
the ages for James & Isabella match and I presume that Ann is his mother.
as you have access to the B'ham 1841 census would you be able to look for Christopher & Ann Johnson, they are Isabella's Parents.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for looking,

I've been leafing through and Christopher was born 1785 and Ann was born 1789 both in birmingham.
