I can't find any for the sedgley area sorry. Nicola

Battenburg Report 23 Jun 2007 13:48

Sorry Nicola. Dont know any other children. The name Mercy was used for another Burden relative. I thought there was a mistranscription so got the death cert only to find a different father so was trying to find a connection by looking for him on the census.

My relatives death was transcribed as Mary Durbey Burden. I thought this was the wife of 2xgt grandfathers brother. However when I got the cert it was Mercy Darbey Burden and she was the baby daughter of my 2xgt grandfather I knew nothing about. Thats why I thought Murcy Burden was a possible relative since the name Darbey Burden was originally Burden.
