Ooooo,certified midwife,brave woman as it was really thought by men that it was not necessary to have training in midwifery and had to be fought for almost as hard as the vote for women,,but of course it wasnt the men dying of chidbirth...

Sorry, had to take a break. Not a lot on Leah only that she is mentioned in those letters. Living in Garndiffath 1871 as was Mary, married to Anthony Lloyd & with daughter Anne who was 6/12 old in '71 She must have been the youngest I think so born after 1849. she wrote one of the letters in 1867.

That's them allright Fanny by gaslight! The names have run throug the family, my brother, grandfather & Uncle Rowland. They weren't a very imaginative lot. I like the certified midwife bit, so am I!!
Cheers, you're a star :)

Births Sep 1851
James Leah Abergavenny 26 7

Think this may be Leah as she is not on 1851 with parents.


So you have Leahs daughter Catherine to thank for the midwifery Gene then ...
