I wonder where the Barnet came as in Barnet Lewis came from? Perhaps there is a Barnet connection?
Overlooked this, but yes! Except not on the Lewis but the Eskins-Howells side.
Annie's mother Anne Eskins, then 40 years old, a widow, father Richard Watkins, bailiff married James Barnett, 60 years old, widower, on 15 April 1894. Witnesses John Lewis and Anne Lewis.
Apparently Archibald was named for his step-grandfather. Also, it seems John & Annie were still together then.
As for Anne's father, the 'bailiff'.. he wasn't mentioned on the marriage certificate with William Eskins, nor on her sister Sarah's baptism certificate in 1848. As a matter of fact, both girls and their mother Mary Ann Howells (bapt. 11 Jan 1829 Redmarley, dau. of George & Catherine Howells) were living with Mary Ann's sister Sarah and her husband Benjamin Hughes in Redmarley during the 1851 census. Both girls were still there in 1861, but Mary Ann has disappeared..
The previous child to Olive, who was Henry Lewis, was born October 1893, and Olive in May 1895, so it seems their parents split up inbetween say early 1893 and 1895, if Olive may not have been John's blood daughter.

wonder where our connection comes from ?
