[BWB: I believe that these are the John and
Elizabeth Wallace who were the parents of William Wallace of Yattendon,
father of our Edythe M. Wallace. Supporting this thesis is that
one William Cripps was a witness at William Wallace's and Mary Anne
Jerome's wedding. I believe this William Cripps was Elizabeth's
brother due to same birth locations and similar, compatable ages per
census of 1871 and 1891. And, item [333] lists an Eliza Cripps as a sister to Elizabeth.]
