I have taken a shortcut with William, and much of the information about him is taken from Mandy Willard's page about him.

Birth

William Allfrey (senior) was born in around 1821-1822 in Keymer or Clayton, both in Sussex.

Marriages

William married three times.

Most important to us was his first marriage when he was 20 to the widow Audrey Sheppard (née Vincent) on the 27th August 1841 at Saint Michael, Lewes, Sussex, England. His father was listed as Thomas Allfrey.

Audrey Allfrey was buried on the 30th December 1848 at Clayton, Sussex.

When he was 34 he married Sarah Dale (who was 24) on the 24th April 1856 at Keymer, Sussex, England. Her father was given as John Dale. According to the census she was born in Chorley, Sussex in around 1832.

In 1861 he was living in West Street, Clayton, Sussex with his wife Sarah and three children: William, George and Frank. His profession was a bricklayer (not a brick labourer!).
