Thank you all, given me lots to work with

I have more on the Harrys but will be back tomorrow night (my time in Oz)

John/Eliza Glasson are proving elusive in 1851/1861 Census
FreeREG has 3 Children to them including Eliza Ann 1851 from memory

They are around though as they witness the Marriage of Julia Ann Thomas HARRY in 1861. She is on 1841 Census I posted. She married as age 41which fits.

This appears to be her and Mother Eliza in 1871;
Eliza Glasson, 59 (1812)
Eliza Ann Glasson, 19
Both born Ludgvan

According to the Wantage Parish Register, Charles Heath was baptised in Wantage on 8th August 1823. His parents were James and Hannah. Profession of father: hempdresser and Charles was born on 17th July 1823.  I trust this is of some help.
Cheers

1851 Census has a CHARLES 1823 and JOSEPH 1832, living with their Uncle JOSEPH Heath born 1793.
Both born Wantage.

Uncle Joseph (1793) maybe the one who was in 2nd battalion 23rd foot - record on Ancestry. It says he was born Wantage and was aged 19 on 1 April 1812.

I had thought the soldier was my Joseph Heath born about same time and living in Wantage in 1841 and 1851, but I think mine was actually born in Wiltshire and not Wantage

Added
Just found your "Uncle" Joseph in Tanner street occ Chelsea pensioner - so that confirms it.
He was living a few doors away from William Eltham, my direct ancestor and the uncle of the man who later married my Joseph's grandaughter Sarah Heath - isn't it a small world!
