There might have been a stillbirth or miscarriage between Jane and Mary ....... but you'll never prove that as stillbirths were not recorded at all in those days.

Can't find a marriage for Robert Abbott & Jane Milburn. Are you sure of her name?

Edit: Never mind, just found it with Abbott spelled wrong:

Marriages Jun 1849 (>99%)

ABBOT Robert Durham &c 24 121
Milburn Jane Durham 24 121

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

There's Charles between Samuel & Jane Ann.

As for the gap between Jane Ann & Mary, Jane would be pushing 40 at the time so probably not as fertile as she was in her younger days.

Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

As Jane was born in c1828then she was 42 in 1871 so hardly likely to have many more children after then

Have you checked the 1881 census to see tha age of the youngest child :-)
