In 1861 two more children had been added:

Sarah J   born 1853
Samuel S  born 1856
__________________

In 1871 of the children only Mary, Jessie, James and Samuel were still at home.  Henry was still a baker at 108 Union Street, East Stonehouse, Devon and Elizabeth his wife was still alive.
__________________

In 1881 no-one can be found.

In 1891 a houshold of Elizabeth widow, Mary and Jessie are to be found at Station Road, Compton Gifford, Plympton St Mary, Devon.  This looks like them.. So Henry died between 1871 and 1891.

In 1901 Elizabeth the mother and Jessie are together with a companion and a servant.
