Samuel Fairbrass b. 6 April 1822 d. 3 December1848 at 33 Salisbury St Lockfields, Newington, Surrey m Eliza Enoch abt. Sept 1844.
Their daughter Emma Kate (aka Kate) b 17 July 1848 at 33 York Place, Pitt St, Walworth Surrey d. 5 April 1930 at 29 Spring Road, Abingdon Brk. I met Kate several times (that dates me). She had a horrid Pomeranean dog called Leo with whom I shared a mutual dislike. 8 of her 14 children survived to adulthood, the 8th being my mother.

My cousin Alan has written a history of the Williams Family of Abingdon and in it he remarks that Eliza's father Humphrey Enoch was a "weaver". Also, the cause of Samuel's death was "haemorrhage into abdomen from ruptured spleen after 4½ days" and queries if he had fallen (being a painter and glazier). He also remarks that six months later Eliza remarried. Her new husband was William Maunder and they were married on 2nd June 1850 at St Peters Church in Walworth, he being described as a batchelor and she a widow.

This shows I was wrong in my above post and should pay more attention.
