Then tragedy strikes - John, sen. & the baby, Martha die in 1832. John was 29 years old,
and Martha was just 2 years old. Both are buried at St. Peter's Church, Upwell.

There was a Cholera epidemic in the Eastern Counties around 1832 - I can only assume that this
or something similar is what killed John and his baby daughter.
Sarah and John, jun. re-appear on the 1851 Census - Sarah is re-married to John SOUTHWELL,
Miller/Farmer of 12 acres, and is living at March Riverside, Upwell.
John CAWTHORN, jun. aged 18 is living with them, along with her new family of 4 young sons.
Dwelling:
Census Place: March Riverside, Upwell.
