[1] Marriage Certificate lists John as a Silk Weaver living at Lower Grosvenor Street. His father as Thomas Woodfield, Deceased. The marriage is witnessed by Caroline Dewhurst and David Boast. Address of the bride is Regent Street, Kensington - known to be the family residence. The 1851 census shows the couple living in the Tower Hamlets, Haggerstone West, St. Leonard's, Shoreditch, Middlesex - the street address is 43 Pearson St. and John is listed as a Clerk and Salesman. Elizabeth is listed as born in Wakefield, Yorkshire. In 1861, the family lives at 2 Havelock St., Finsbury, St. Mary's, Islington and John works as a Mercantile Clerk. In 1871, the family lives at 4 Copenhagen Gr., Finsbury, Islington and John is listed as a Commercial Traveller.

[2] John Augustus Woodfield only shows up in the 1851 census and is presumed to have died young.

[3] Thomas E. Woodfield first shows up in the 1861 census as a boarder at Christ Hospital Hertford St John, Rochester, Hertfordshire, England. In 1871, he is a servant at 74 Tottenham Ct. Rd., St. Pancras, Marylebone, London, England. In 1881, he lives with his mother, Elizabeth and sister Florence at 13 Windsor Road, St. Mary's, Finsbury, Islington, London. His occupation is "tailor shopman" and his birthplace is listed as Kingsland, Middlesex. In 1891, he lives with his wife, Elizabeth M., b. Reading, Berkshire, at 10 Ashmire Road, St. Mary's Paddington, London as a Salesman. Also in the household is Thomas' sister Gertrude J. Woodfield Crofts (married) and her newborn daughter, Isabel, aged 2 weeks. Apparently their son, Charles is visiting in the household of William Allen and his wife, Kate, who was born in the same place, Reading, Berkshire as Elizabeth Woodfield - probably his aunt and uncle. In 1901, Thomas and wife, Elizabeth live with their 17 year old son, Charles, and Thomas' sister Florence.
