Hi Folks
I think that has helped she was Maria's child.Now it is interesting to know why Maria went from the place she was born and brought up to Wales and back again!

Thank you all again

How can Harriet be 11 in 1881 and only 14 in 1891 - have I lost the plot?

Selena

PS. sorry I didn't realise she was 4 in 1881.

Makes a bit more sense now.

Unless you look at the image then it could be transcribed wrong.

Still think she is 4 in 1881

Yes I appreciate that they could marry young.
Just trying to confirm if Harriet is Maria's daughter or not.

Thank you
