Reg,

SNAP!

Thank heavens the children had unusual names or we would be looking for ages.

Carrie

Carrie Report 29 Oct 2007 22:07

No its not unusual for the age to be slightly out, they didn't need or use them like we do now, and they didn't always know exactly which year they were born anyway, I'll have another look in 1871 though just incase.
