Wow - Thank you for the info.   I shall have to look for the death of Samuel, at least if the children took the name of Bartlett I guess Samuel died.   Just a couple more mysteries to clear up on this family, no rest for the wicked.     Again sincere thanks                Ysie

Your Welcome!
If you look at the BMD site I wonder if Samuel died in Plymton 1894 age 41 or Truro 1895 age 49-as he was missing from the 1891 census he could have been working away?
Good Luck with the research!

Thank you both.  I am awaiting the marriage cert. for Mary and William to confirm Mary was widowed.
I also noted that the twins were Registered September 1891.  I shall look into the deaths you have suggested.  Have another few weeks before the Certificate arrives.               Ysie.
