My Grt grt grandmother was Clarissa Davi(e)s. She is a brick wall. According to her marriage certificate (1849) her father was George (a porter), and on her death certificate her mother was Patience Blan(d)ford). I have found her parents' marriage certificate (1824), but not Clarissa's birth certificate although she was born about 1830. Clarissa married Anton Wilhelm Friedrich Sievers and they, along with Wilhelm's brother and his wife, immediately jumped on a ship to New Zealand. I can't find any census records showing George and Patience together. Some very interesting things: My aunty has 3 DNA matches to 3 different children of Johann Friedrich Heins (1828-1913) and Emma Martha Davis. Is with through the Heins side or the Davi(e)s side The Emma's father was George, the same as Clarissa, although I know that these names are common. And guess what ! George and his daughter Emma were living in Booth St Spitalfields in 1851 (with no mother) and Booth St is listed as Clarissa's address at the time of her marriage in 1849...Any thoughts are most welcome.
