Thanks Lily M.  Can stop beating my head looking for living children. By heck there were a lot of John and Ann Sharps.

[Lily M]

Wrong one then?

[Lily M]

Overlook that last comment.   I now see what you mean.   Right woman - no children.

[KiwiHugh]

Nooooo but on a slower read Sarah is a new face.  Her brother was Joseph Heywood Wright
 Boy am I lost now.
AND I should add his son was Joseph Heywood Wright. Which there should be a law against

I LOVE it when they name their son the same as dad,it ensures that you are definitely following the right line.

But this is nuts. He was meant to have died aged  less than 1 in 1833
And Joseph Snr lived with wife sophia Jane till the 1870's
I am actually getting a headache

[carol8353]

A Joseph Heywood Wright did die age 1 in 1833.

But Joseph and Sophia named their next son b 1833,the same name as his brother ( and dad)

Baptised in Holborn on 24 Jul 1833.
