I read the 1861 census to mean that Richard, Ann and family were lodging with William COLLIN ......... The Suffolk index is a weird one. Part of it shows up in the subscription/pay per view site FindMyPast - but not all of it. And I think you would be presuming an awful lot if you presumed Henry PORTER was the father of all 3 children born before he and Maria were married :) Paula

Thanks Paula, I'll spend some more time this weekend looking into this family. I have done lots of other branches but the Johnsons have always been my major stumbling block and I have kept shying away from them! I really appreciate your advice and help.
