I had no luck at all with your Jakins family so decided to look for your George Maynard. He's in St. Paul, Bedfordshire. I went forward a few pages to see if there were any Jakins neighbours. The pages are so badly faded that they're almost unreadable. I suspect that's where your Jakins are. Fading into oblivion! Margaret

Thanks Reg, I should have mentioned that Thomas and Mary are children of Susan/Susanna Jakins. Their father was called William but I don't know when he died as Susan appears as a widow on the 1851 census. Thanks again Vicky
