Notes Death Certificate: Richard Amies, Mar 1895, Ross 6a 387

Richard Amies was living in Whitton, Parish of Burford at time of marriage. Presumably he was living with his brother Francis, who appears in the 1851 census for Whitton.

In the 1881 census, the birthplace of Betsy (Slopton Crowford, which doesn't exist) is a typo for Hopton Cangeford.

Another possible relative in the 1881 census is (Craven Arms is very near Onibury) that I've not tracked down yet:
