Hi, All, thank you for your help, itdoes look like Betsey died in 1847, I wonder what happened to William ? Perhaps he could not cope with little ones on his own, nowadays we can not begin to imagine what it was like for a lone parent. I will keep the info, one day the pieces may fit together. Many thanks for all your help. Donna.

I can't see them but I looked for the younger family memebers.

The age for George is 2 years out from the 1839 George, so it may not be the same one Linda
