Epaphroditus Vizard died 2Q1868, age 80. There's a birth for Aquilla Vizard 1Q 1846 (presumably same one as born before Frederick and Ann were married) There's also a death record for Aquilla Wilkins 1Q 1848 Shipston-on-Stour - might be worth getting this certificate as it could be a family member. The only Aquilla Wilkins I could find on 1841 census is age 6 in Frome, Somerset. On Ancestry there are two family trees with Epaphroditus Vizard. One gives his father as James Vizard born Dursley about 1760, and mother Ann Fisher. Pat Hanby Reading, UK Today's Topics: 1.
