I am using Ancestry.uk which is a pay site.

1861 census Mangotsfield Gloucester
BRYANT
George, 44, carpenter employing 2 men
Mary, 43
Henry, 21, carpenter
John, 19
James, 15
Robert,11
Elizth, 1
All born Mangotsfield Gloucester.

Another Robert in Gloucester with sister Elizabeth aged 6 on 1861 census. Parents Mark and Elizabeth.

1871 census, parents Mark & Elizabeth has an Elizabeth aged 16.

I am working on the assumption that your Robert is the one with parents George and Mary. Hope I am right.

1871 census Mangotsfield
BRYANT
George, 52, carpenter
Mary, 50
Robert, 20, carpenter and joiner.

Elizabeth Bryant is a fairly common name in the area and they are several born re 1861 or so.
As she isn't on 1871 census, is there a possibility that she died? If she was still alive she would only be 11 and would still be at home.
One of Robert's children is named Bessie.

This is the correct family. My sentiments about Elzith the same but no death record so far. Robert married Elizabeth Nicholls and had 2 daughters in Knowle, Bessie b 1873 -Elizabeth Mary Bryant and Maude b 1874-Alice Maude M. Bryant.

Elizabeth Nicholls died abt 1878, Robt Married Rosina Cother Gregory- Phillips Widow of Edward Phillips.

I also have a Link to a Bjornstad family tree ,showing George may have had more children, likely earlier, with Mary. That discovered late last evening, but there are multiple names to review with multiple birth dates

I have been off this board for some time. I live in Waterloo, Ontario and would be grateful for any further info or photos. Not sure if this board allows but my contact is my user name at HOTMAIL. Thanks. Rosina Cother Gregory was my Great Grandmother, her son James Cother Bryant my Grandfather who settled in Toronto. His Brother Stanley in London, ON and sister was Florence. She married "The boy next door" according to my census notes, your Grandfather Jefferies and moved to Canada.
