marriage and children for John Stearn (1811-1860)

[FrancisGrn]

Dear all,
I would like to find out if my relative John Stearn had any children. He was born in Fressingfield in 1811 to Charles Stearn and Mary Ann Bullock. He was the brother to Henry Bullock Stearn (1807-1875), Mary Ann Stearn (1808-1865) and Charles Stearn (1810-1884). He is living in Ipswich in 1851 as a widower, along with his sister and niece.

He died in Ipswich in 1861. Unfortunately, I can neither find a marriage for him nor find him in 1841, and I would like to find out if he left any children.
Best wishes,
Francis

There's also a death in  Ipswich of a Sarah Stearn in 1846?

If you have his d/c was the informant a family member?

There is a William John Stearn marriage to Sarah West in 1833 St Mary Elms, Ipswich but no image to view https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NL9F-F9W?lang=en

There's also a death in  Ipswich of a Sarah Stearn in 1846?

This is all excellent. I don't have the death cert. but the 1860 date chimes with everything else and is in the right location. Thanks so much guys!
