Hi these could be the deaths of Ann and William Marchant:-

William Trim Marchant June qtr 1891 Kingston 2a 239 aged 65
Ann Marchant Dec qtr 1894 Newport Pagnell 3a 397 aged 75

Possible baptism for William:-

William Irvine Marchant 19th February 1825 Holy Trinity Frome, Somerset Father Job Mother Mary

The marriage of Job to Mary was Job Marchant to Mary Burridge 9th January 1823 Frome, Somerset.
I believe that John and Kezia possibly both died in Sussex aged 76, needs confirming though?
