During the 1850s the family moved to Sheffield, Yorkshire, although dates and places of birth indicate that they didn't all move at the same time, and daughter Jane was already married when they moved (her first two children were born in Tiverton), and son John may have been the first to move north and he married Isabella Thompson of Sheffield. They both lived in Heely, Sheffield and died in Ecclesall Bierlow.

Frederick was born more than a year before Walter and Eliza married and is recorded as TIBBY at birth so is probably not Walter's son. Only Eliza (recorded as Elizabeth) and the Walter's 3 children are together in the 1901 census where Frederick has the EASTERBROOK surname. By 1911 most of the family are in the Exeter City Workhouse.

Louisa marries Charles after the death of her first husband, but all their children die as young children or infants. There is no trace of Charles and Louisa after 1841 but a death index entry indicates Louisa may have died in 1844. Charles is possibly the son of John and Mary FERRIS.
