Hi Jean D,
Occupation Maltster on 1861/1871 Census where he is born c 1800, All Saints in 1861 and 1799 St Peters in 1871.
I cannot find the family in 1851 Census.
1861 at home is Son WILLIAM born c 1847, All Saints
I presume this is his Christening;
William LANE, Baptised/Christened 26 April 1847, St Nicholas-Wesleyan, Hereford, Hereford
Parents JOHN/ELIZA

John Lane/Eliza Porter Married 10 June 1827, Holmer, Hereford
(IGI Extracted)
Hi Rob,
I notice trees do not have the 1841 Census
1841 Census
All Saints, Herefordshire
HO107/433/1/All Saints
John LANE, 45, Ag Lab
Eliza, 40
Elizabeth, 10
Thomas, 7
They are at Blue School Lane, 1841/1861/1871 census and I still cant find them in 1851!
I have found THOMAS born c 1834 who is an Apprentice Joiner in 1851.
Thomas Married Charlotte KINDERDINE, 27 March 1856, Holmer, Father JOHN
(Source Familysearch.Org)
1881 he is Registrar of Births/Deaths in Holmer.
Back to the Christening of JOHN c 1800 as his Son William was Christened St Nicholas could this be John c 1800??
John LANE, 19 June 1799, Saint Nicholas, Hereford, Herefordshire
Parents WILLIAM/ELIZABETH
Trish

EDIT 1861 Thomas and Charlotte are living nearby to John/Eliza (on same Census page) he is a Builder and with him is Brother JOHN born c 1842 , a Painter.
So another Child for John/Eliza.
