Their other children were all baptised at the church of St. Michael and All Angels in Hope Mansell. As evidenced by the baptism registers, the family lived in the Hamlet(t) of Newland (also known as Newland Hamlet) a tiny village in Lea Bailey and a short walk from Hope Mansell.
They had five more children:
