Filling in some of the gaps above (work in progress I know)
From GlosBMD, Agnes' mother was a Davis;

Birth:

Only possible (ie Inman & Davis/Davies) Marriage on that site appears to confirm the 1881 Census & Marriage PRs quoted above, namely;

Slowhands,

On the 1911 census Agnes Inman is from Blakeney and recorded as a cousin to Alfred Andrews, Fanny's son. I can't yet make the connection.

It looks like Fanny VIRGO left Blakeney to find work "in service" in Cheltenham and there she married Charles ANDREWS in St Mary's in 1868.

The marriage is not in our database because she did not give her abode as somewhere in the Forest, which is how the 130 marriages from St Mary's Cheltenham were found and transcribed. Their marriage details are as follows

In 1887 Charles ANDREWS suddenly died, the following was printed in the Gloucester Citizen on 7 December 1887

Sudden Death. We regret to announce the death this morning of Mr Charles Andrews of 59, Burton Street, Cheltenham, who for many years distinguished himself as a "captain" of Cheltenham Fire Brigade. He also held the position of secretary of the Widows and Orphans' Lodge of Oddfellows until his death, and recently the Office of Grand Master of the Cheltenham District I.O.O., M.U., a position to which he did honour. He leaves a wife and 8 children to mourn their loss.
