Linda It means that it's either 542 or 547 - the image must have been poor quality and the transcriber couldn't read whether it was a 2 or a 7. If you hang on a mo, I'll have a look at the original and see if I can make it out. Mandy :) |

Thanks Mandy, there are now so many different surnames in this family from remarriage I'm getting in a right pickle! Linda (who wished her rellies married once, never moved house and never lied about their age!!) |

Hi Linda It's definitely 542. The image on FreeBMD is awful, I'm surprised the transcriber could read any of the entry at all, but on 1837 it's much clearer. Mandy :) PS: There's also another HOWL birth in the same quarter, same area, but different page - maybe cousins perhaps? HOWL - Jonah - Walsall - vol 6b, page 511 |
