I was wondering if any of the Duckett family on this list would be able to
help with the following.  I am looking for information on Elizabeth Duckett
(presumably her married name), born about 1823 in Wedmore.  By 1862, she
seems to have been widowed, when banns were announced for her and John
Kingston.  No marriage occurred, however, until 1873 when banns were again
announced followed by their marriage on May 5.  On the 1871 census, John
Kingston and Elizabeth Duckett were living together, with children all named
Duckett: Sarah A. (8), Robert (7), Mary (4), Ellen (2), and Alice (4
months).  These children may have been by John Kingston, but it is unclear.
    Does anyone have any information on Elizabeth, or the children?

    Thanks.
