Reg That was my first thought but the oldest daughter was Martha Hicks (Mary's daughter out of wedlock) born 1840, else next daughter was Elizabeth born 1850, is it likely they would be sent away to have child at age 12/13 years in Elizabeth's case? Joanna

Any of William and Mary's children could be her parent........ I would suggest that as her birth was probably in London......ref 1871.......that one of the daughters had her out of wedlock. Just a 'gut' feeling........... Reg
