Just on a quick look through the records-
Benjamin Wheeler married Selina/Serena Humphries in Sep 1844. They had William 1846, Ann 1848, Charles 1851, Edward 1853 and Thomas 1855. In 1851 census they are listed as Wooler living in Seend. Sometime in the late 1850's they separated and Selina left, taking with her Ann and Thomas. William, Charles and Edward are with their Wheeler grandmother in 1862, Benjamin is a lodger with another family. In 1867 Benjamin remarries, as a widower, to Merab Watts. They subsequently move to London. By 1861 Selina is with Robert in Swansea with Ann and Thomas and her new children from this relationship. Selina dies in 1892 so Benjamins 2nd marriage was a bit naughty!
Also this is an intriguing little snippet from the papers for 1856. Could this be the same Robert Williams?
