Bev Datchworth is well represented on the IGI and there are baptisms for George, David and Arthur there. The 1851 census shows Joseph & Sarah EPHGRAVE living with several of their children including son David and daughter Caroline and her son Arthur. Next door is son George with wife Elizabeth and their children. I'll send the image of the census page directly to you.

Hi Paula, Thanks so much for your help. I'm amazed at all the different spellings of this name. Thank you for the census page! I'll be sure to check out the IGI's -- now that I have some name variations to play with (laugh).
