Default Tracing Rosena Easton

Rosina was born in about 1831 and was baptised in October 1831 at Chew Magna, Somerset. She appears on the 1841 census aged 9 with her parents, William and Ann Easton. Basically, I can't find her after this.

She didn't change her name to Phoebe and marry Henry Weeks in 1857.
She didn't die in Bath in 1858.
She didn't marry Jonas Flower.

I am going round in circles!

Mother died before 1851.
Father, yes
Eldest sister, yes (married with family)
Brother, yes (with father)
Next sister, no, but not with family in 1841 so she may have died
Next sister, yes, servant in Timsbury

Rosena was the youngest.

She's been assumed into heaven like the Virgin Mary....

No sign of her anywhere and all the trees online have nothing either...

FamilySearch has a Rosena Easton, daughter of William, marrying a Henry Band, son of Charles, 13 May 1861 at Leamington Priors, Warwickshire. It doesn't give their ages but maybe the image will be on ancestry, off to look...

They are both just "full age" on the marriage entry:
ancestry

William's occupation is labourer.

Yes that's her (Bond, not Band!)

Thank you so much Kate. I don't know why I didn't see that marriage?

This is them in 1871, Rosina age 35 born Somersetshire, Bishops Sutton. I don't think that's near Chew Magna, but it's the right county!
1871 census
