Could someone could help with this please? Can't find any record for Soloman Rayner or children William Henry, Ann Ellen and Anne after 1849.

I do not know his place, or exact year of birth.


He married Mary Guest in 1835....

They had another 2 children. Emanuel born1842 & died 1842 and another Anne in 1845, so possibly Ann Ellen also died young.


Mary died in 1849....

Ooh. Thank you so much Maddie & Detective. Didn't take him long to remarry. Hope that means the children survived infancy.

Thanks Margaret. Looks like they all went to France then. It's good to know he took his daughter with him. I wonder what took him to France so soon after his wife's death?

Is this information from Findmypast?
