My husband has found out that, through dna, that his father is not his birth father. I have narrowed it down to likely be one of three brothers as the particular  family has done a lot of dna tests on Ancestry. Several of the matches are very close (600-800 cm). I’ve built a  ( private, given the circumstances) tree and would like to add my husband in but I’m not sure how. Is it possible to link him to the known grandfather without a definite father? Plus, would it make any sense to link his mother’s side to this tree ( I currently have a separate tree for his parents which is public).

Thank you for any advice

Thank you so much. I’m on Ancestry but didn’t see these! I keep forgetting to look on family search q

It might be asthenia - I’ve just come across this on a certificate. It means abnormal physical weakness or lack of energy

I was perusing my great grandmother’s 1911 census entry and thought I would try and find the 6 ( of 17) children who did not survive. I didn’t even find all the surviving children for some reason but I did find what appeared to be a set of twins both recorded on the same page (1893 D quarter Pancras Vol 01b p10): Jane and Anthony Sullivan. Looking for the deaths I found what seemed to be the same babies, however the deaths were recorded 1893, J quarter, Pancras 01B p3, I.e. earlier than the births.

I’ve now received the pdfs for Jane’s birth and death which shows the birth and death occurring on 17/4/1893 due to prematurity and asthenia (weakness). The death was recorded on 20/4/1893 ( by an aunt, ” in attendance “) but the birth not until 1st November by the mother.  I’d assume it was the same for the other baby.

How unusual would this be? I thought there was a 42 day limit to record births. It seems likely my great grandmother might have been unwell as the aunt registered the deaths but how would they miss the births?

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance
