Looking for William Allen (no other names that I can find).  1851 census' and later show his birth c. 1821/1822 in Exeter, Devon.  In 1851 he had already moved to Lambeth, London.

Married to Patience Johanna (Joanna) White 1845.  Children Frederick John Allen, Mary, Elizabeth, Louisa, Eliza, Sarah, Jessie & William.

Patience Johanna baptized at St. Sidwells

Thanks for your help.

First thing to do is obtain a copy of the marriage certificate in 1845. This should give both of their respective fathers' names & occupations.
