Those two dates fit in well with the other bits and bobs that I have found as well.

Could not find Robert in 1851 but found Sophia as a 70 year old widow in Newmarket. She is also in 1861 at Chevington, this time she is listed as Mother to head, aged 81. She is living with her son Joseph, aged 43, which gives him a birth year of 1818, and that ties in very well with the family search data. Joseph is married to Rebecca and they have one child aged 3 named Charlotte R.

I also found following on family search which again tied in well with the 1804 marriage date:
Sophia b. 25 Apr 1805 bapt. 2 May 1805 Chevington
Robert b. 25 Jan 1807 bapt 6 Feb 1807 Chevington
Mary b. 18 Mar 1809 bapt 25 Mar 1809 Chevington
Amy b. 22 Feb 1813 bapt 1 Mar 1813 Chevington

Seeing as I only popped into Suffolk yesterday on this 'hunting spree' this little gigsaw is working very well, and your contribution is very much appreciated. Keep it coming, I just love getting this sort of assistance
