I appear to be missing Mary Ann CLARK wife c1820, son Charles and son Robert. I have them in 1861 in Greenwich, London

William CLARK 47
Mary Ann 41
Emma 17
Charles 15
Edward 15
Robert 12
Henry 9
Alfred 6
Arthur 3 months

I don't have access to the 1851 but a very helpful lady found these for me last night:

William CLARK 37
Sarah 12
Emma 7
Edward 2

All born and living in Greenwich. I also have this family in 1841 so I know I am on the right track. The names are right but the ages are wrong. I am asuming Edwards age is recorded wrongly in 1861 or that his age and Roberts age have been mixed up. BUT where is Mary Ann in 1851? I am wondering if Charles and Robert are with her somewhere - can anyone help find them in 1851 please.

I did wonder if Charles & Edward are the children of Mary before she married William Clark.

Thanks. I suppose thats possible. In 1841 William is there with Mary aged 20 and Sarah and baby Maria who I have found out died in 1841. So I assumed wife Mary was the same person?

Yes, that's what I thought. The family appear to be fairly "steady" - although I can't find all the children, I can find William and Mary right up to 1891 still in Greenwich.
