May I ask how you know juedoc that Benjamin was born c 1791 Lamport?
I cant seem to find him on any Census.

Not sure how I found that out as I have no sources. Ooh dear, back to the drawing board I might be wrong there then. Thank you

William DICKENS and Mary Ann TAYLOR on the same page

Marriage of Florence/Fred is on FreeREG, Her Father is HENRY, Occp Carrier
You need to get some Certs;
Florences Birth Cert to establish her Mothers maiden name to start with.
Then her Parents Marriage Cert.
As for Mary Ann Taylor the only way to find her Father./then Parents is her M/C to William Dickens
Trish :)
EDIT; Ok I see were you got her Father as Benjamin from, the M/C is on Anc, Father Benjamin, Occp Labourer
A Joseph Taylor was a Witness.
But Mary Ann from 1851 Census is born Leics so Benjamin may be from there or lived there, back later.
1841 in Brixworth are;
Jos Taylor. 15, Male Servant
Mary Taylor, 15, Female Servant
Both not born in County
HO107/807/1/Brixworth
-
Joseph Taylor is born c 1824-1828 on Census;
Living in Teeton, Northants in 1861
1861 we have;
Joseph Taylor, 37, born Great Wigston, Leicestershire
Eliza Taylor, 30
Mary Ann Taylor, 6
Henry Taylor, 2
Benjamin Taylor, 4
Thomas Archer, 61, Stepfather
Not sure about Thomas Archer.
Marriage of Joseph to Eliza SIMMS 1854 is on Anc, Father Benjamin, Labourer.
A Harriot Taylor is a Witness
-
Ok, dont panic, you had the right Marriage, but I am still no closer to find the Father Benjamin in any Census yet!
Christenings;
JOSEPH Taylor, 3 April 1823, Independant, Wigston Magna, Leics to Benjamin/Mary
MARY ANN Taylor, 9 March 1826, Bishop St Wesleyan, Leicester to Benjamin/Mary
HARRIETT Taylor, 5 July 1832, Bishop St Wesleyan, Leicester to Benjamin TAYLOR and Mary PHIPPS*****
Other possible Children in Leics;
THOMAS, 13 Dec 1827
EDWARD, 13 Dec 1829
HANNAH, 9 Oct 1834
THOMAS EDWARDS, 20 Feb 1837
May be others 1820-1822
1851 Census Harriett Taylor, born c 1833, Wighton, Leicestershire is a Servant in Spratton, Northamptonshire
So it looks like Benjamin/Mary married 14 Jan 1819 in Scaldwell, Northants
Had 1 Child there William Baptised 6 June 1819 Scaldwell
They then must have moved to Leicestershire
The only niggling doubt I have is that Benjamisn Occp was a Miller on the 1819 Marriage Record on FreeREG.
By the Childrens Marriages found he was just a Labourer
Off to see if I can track any of the others down.

Parents EDWD/MARY
Edward PHIPPS Married Mary TANSLEY, 20 Oct 1791 same Church
Both on FreeREG
-
The 1841 Census I posted for Mary and Children in Wigston has the Reg District of Blaby.
Death Reg;
Benjamin TAYLOR
Sept 1839, Blaby, 15 45
Looks to me that is why he cant be found on Census.
Mary may have remarried after 1841 also.
