Have found a William Francis (born Barking) in 1861 census age 76 at Barking (Needham was part of the parish of Barking), also his wife Mary 76 (born Creeting)and his mother Elizabeth Henry(?) age 105 (born Creeting)! These could be your William & Mary or his parents (people were so unimaginative with names in those days!) I also have ancestors from Needham Market (Hobart/Hubbard). If you would like a copy, send me your email in an off-line message & I will send you the 1861 link for William Francis.

Hi Wirrall,
Thanks for your message. The postings on this family were actually for a distant cousin. I have asked her to contact you direct on this site. Probably better to talk direct. If she does not do so or has difficulty doing so I will pick up the thread again (for her).
Thnaks and best wishes, Roy
