This may be her dates are almost right if there are no other Jane Stevens in Chinnor/Thame then I think I'll claim her, until proved wrong!

Yes please I'd love to know the other kids names.

She lived in Thame in later life and had her son Albert there.  She died very soon after having her son, husband married again after that!

Thanks for the kids names.  I think a birth or marriage certificate will be required to clarify her name.

Thanks for checking for me.

I have ordered Jane's marriage certificate so hopfully that will settle the argument.  I had hoped to avoid the £7 charge but as there doesn't appear to be a plain Jane Stevens I am going for it.

Many thanks will let you know who is right!
