    Notes:

    Note that in his funeral notice, the first two mentioned children are William and Margaret (both deceased). William is Robert William who died in WWII but no record yet found for Margaret's birth or death. Given rest of children are mentioned in birth order, it is assumed she may have been a twin who died as a baby. It is possible she was born in 1907 as there is 19 months between the births of Robert William and Alfred Charles.

    FATAL ACCIDENT AT CHEVINGTON. - On Thursday, the 16th inst., a man named Wm. Nunn was driving a team of horses from Hargrave to Chevington, and on going down the hill from that place, a young horse became unmanageable and started off. The man, who was riding on the shaft horse, attempted to throw himself off so as to escape the wheel, but unfortunately it passed over his body. He was carried home immediately, and Mr. Barker, who was soon in attendance, found the poor man suffering from the shock, the bladder being much injured. He lingered in great suffering until Thursday last (23rd), when he expired.
