I am typing up info as Transcibed;

1861 Census
Horningsea, Cambridgeshire
RG9/1020/80/1
William ROBINSON, 47, Head, Mar, Gardener
Mary Ann Jane, 40, Wife, Mar, born Fen Ditton
Rueben RICKET, 22, Son in Law, Unm, Ag Lab, born Fen Ditton
James GOTEBED, 14, Son in Law, Ag Lab, born Fen Ditton
+ Robinson Children;
William, 11, Ag Lab
Mary Ann Jane, 8
Louisa, 6
David Dicket, 5
Emma Amelia, 2

Son in Law means Step Son, so both likely Children of Mary Ann Jane. I have confirmed this I think and will explain later.

SYNOPIS;

It appears to me that Rueben Ricket is the Illeg Son of Mary Ann Jane RICKET.
She then Married a GOTOBED and James is born c 1845.
She is Widowed and Married William ROBINSON 1849.
William was a Widower also I would say given all the Children born pre 1849 Marriage.
William Robinson c 1850 is most likely the Son of Mary/William born after Marriage.

1841 Census
Fen Ditton, Cambridgeshire
HO107/67/2/Fen Ditton
William RICKETT, 50, Carpenter
Elizabeth, 40
James, 20, Sheimaker
Alexander, 15, Ag Lab
Rachell, 14
John, 10
Daniel, 8
Sarah, 3
RUBEN, 3****

These are likely Mary Ann Jane's Parents and Rueben is their Grandson.

There is a ANN RICKET c 1822 who is a Female Servant to a Farmers Family in Fen Ditton in 1841 Census.

Marriage Reg;
Charles GOTOBED June 1845, Chesterton, 14 47
Ann RICKET on same page

I cannot find a JAMES Gotobed Birth Reg c 1846 on FreeBMD but there are several Male Gotobed Birth Reg in the right time frame, no 1st name given, in Chesterton Reg District.

Possible Death Reg;
CHARLES Gotobed, March 1846, Chesterton, 14 23

To confirm any of this you would need James GOTOBED's M/C to Rachel BENDALL, Reg Dec 1869, Chesterton, 3b 1065

Trish

EDIT FREDERICK JAMES GOTOBED did not die.
1881 Census he is under Fredk Jas Gotobed c 1871. Lodging with George/Martha SCOTT as a Nephew.
An Elizabeth S Robinson is there also.
Martha may be William Robinsons Daughter as her POB/DOB matches the Martha Newling ROBINSON on 1851 Census.

Yes, Marriage for her to George SCOTT 1877

If anyone has access to Cambridge Records can they confirm any of this please

Hi muddy wheels

Welcome to rootschat 

I cannot find a JAMES Gotobed Birth Reg c 1846 on FreeBMD but there are several Male Gotobed Birth Reg in the right time frame, no 1st name given, in Chesterton Reg District.

There was a James christened at Fen Ditton 14th December 1845 parents Charles and Ann

Trish,

I am trying to get my head around all this, you have done really well 

I have a very distant link to the Fen Ditton  'Gotobeds' and have never looked at them so perhaps now is the time.        I don't normally bother with going back very far on cousins marriages.

In 1841 Charles, age 20 is living in the same house (differerent household) as Mary Peters age 30 and Mary Peters age 6 - also with him is Hannah Gotobed age 10.
 Hannah that is living with him age 10 is I believe the daughter of William Gotobed from whom 'my' Gotobed link descends.  Mary Peters is I believe Mary Ann Gotobed who married James Peters in 1831, she was christened 5th March 1809, same parents as James.  Whilst I can't as yet locate a christening for 'my William' bn c1805 I suspect he is Charles brother.

Charles was christened 1st August 1819 parents Richard and Mary at Fen Ditton.  Richard Gotobed married Mary Isaacson in 1803.
