A John LILLICRAP born ca 1816 Devon, England appears to have married an Amelia COUCH born ca 1837 St Helier.
I believe John was married previously and had 4 children between 1847 and 1852. He then married Amelia ca 1855 and went on to have a further 11 children, the last of which was William Arthur baptised 27 Jul 1884 when John, his father was 68! (I have baptisms for 7 of the children via Donkipedia) Apart from his amazingly prolific brood, John appears to have either been a carter or a labourer (where did he find the time?).
I have the 1861-1901 censuses - what I really would like to locate if John & Amelia's marriage. Hopefully his father's name was given and I can tie him in to my Devon family.
TIA,
