He is not the William with wife Mary; I have checked that.
Perhaps he is in the workhouse in 1871 and his name was omitted in error?
This is what I know about him:
William Newton was christened in Princes Risborough, 17 November 1799.
He married Hannah Picton in Monks Risborough, 19 April 1824. Hannah was born in Meadle, Monks Risborough 1800. She was the daughter of Edward Picton and Elizabeth Wells.
Hannah died 5 May 1851 in Summerleys, Princes Risborough. Cause of death: 'Inflammation'. Not Certified', she was age 51, wife of William Newton, Labourer. Her body was interred 10 May 1851 in Princes Risborough.
He married Jane Coles in Princes Risborough Parish Church, 25 October 1856. Jane was born in Middlesex about 1793. Jane died 25 August 1862 in Princes Risborough, at 69 years of age.
William died 8 March 1874 in Wycombe Union Workhouse, Saunderton. Cause of death: 'Cancer in the Face', he was age 75, formerly a Farm Labourer. The informant was James Dancer, in Attendance, of Wycombe Union Workhouse, Saunderton. His body was interred 12 March 1874 in Princes Risborough. Of Wycombe Union, age 75.
1831 census for Princes Risborough Town lists William working in agriculture with two females and two males over twenty in the same house.
