Hi Therese
Can you give us a bit more info to narrow it down, which part of the country were they living, have you found them on any census, childrens names and approx dates of birth.

No problem Therese but it might be a good idea to start a fresh post inc the info you have on the Devon board rather than it being lost as a 'Saxmundham Look Up' on the Suffolk board.
