In 1841 the Pink family were living in Brook End, Longstanton.

1841 John Pink, Ruth, William 23, Rebecca 19, Alfred 4.

However, in 1851 Brook End is not listed and therefore Fews Lane may have been the same location.

Ruth was born in Longstanton in 1797, daughter of Thomas Burgess and Susannah Allen.

Their eldest son was William, b 1818 Longstanton, who married Martha Clifton in 1840.

Their second son was James, b Longstanton in 1821. He married Susan Wolfe in Rampton in 1847 and in 1851 was living there.

In 1841 their 12 year old son, Jonathan was living as a servant just two houses away on Brook End, with the family of William Childs. In 1851 Jonathan is a servant in the family of Edward Roburson (farmer with 162 acres) on the High Street, Longstanton. In 1861 Jonathan is married and living on Back Street, Bluntisham. Alfred became a bricklayer; he married  Elizabeth Stukins in 1863 and in 1871 they are living in Islington.
