Hi Marion

Please could you help sort out something for me. Eliza was born in 1801 (her
birth date being 2 Aug 1801) so her father would have been abt 17 years old
and her mother possibly the same age or younger. Ann was born four years
later abt 1805 and then the third child in 1835. Is there a reason for this
very large age difference in the children - 30 years to be exact between Ann
and her brother? Or is it a typo?

Thanks
Tessa King
