Find Ancestors

Yeah as i found with other families there seem to be a regular pattern of having babies and normally the last child is born late in parents life.

But maybe this is correct and there has been no deaths at all

I'm not sure why you think there is anything odd about the ages of the children...........women often become less fertile as they get older, so the pregnancies are not as frequent as when they were younger..........


I deleted the previous post.....the age for Mary in 1891 is not correct.............

Hi Debra

Yeah this is one of mine thanks.

What do u think of the gaps between siblings? Have been on IGI to see if theres names i havent seen but nothing there just what I already know.

Henry Davenport aged 9 years old is my gt grandad i also have his birth certicate which matches with what i found to be his parents,

Davenport family have proved to be a problem for me as theres loads from Cheshire which is where they orginally started from back in 1055 something like that!
