Great thanks I was just checking DOB's for John & Mary's children

Marianne Downes
christening: 5 August 1821 LUDLOW,SHROPSHIRE,ENGLAND
father: John Bill Downes
mother: Mary Ann

I've found a marriage to Henry Nicholls DOB 29/7/1920 his parents I believe are William Nicholls & Elizabeth Webb
Married 1844 Kidderminster (18 485)

From a fam tree on ancestry looks like they emigrated to Australia where Marian DOD 1903 (82)
Henry Nicholls DOD Australia 1889 (60)

Thanx

I don't know about John Bill's father though.
The IGI has

Francis Downs
christening: 1 June 1783 MUCH WENLOCK,SHROPSHIRE,ENGLAND
father: Wm. Downs
mother: Mary

Richard Downs
christening: 10 September 1786 MUCH WENLOCK,SHROPSHIRE,ENGLAND
father: William Downs
mother: Mary

John Bill Downes
christening: 13 June 1797 MUCH WENLOCK,SHROPSHIRE,ENGLAND
father: William Downes
mother: Mary

Marianne Downes
christening: 9 January 1799 MUCH WENLOCK,SHROPSHIRE,ENGLAND
death: 24 August 1800
father: William Downes
mother: Mary

William Downes
christening: 6 July 1800 MUCH WENLOCK,SHROPSHIRE,ENGLAND
death: 8 September 1800
father: William Downes
mother: Mary

but the first two might belong to a different couple? That 1841 census gave William aged 65 so he could have been born 1772-1776 and there are a few options baptised in Shropshire. Ipswich seems a bit far off.
