I was just thinking ... how awful it must have been for her ....  :-\

looks like she wasn't able to move away ...... probably no money and probably by 1851 the grandparents were gone ! ........ imagine the "stigma" she had to bear !!

My heart goes out to her !! :-\

I think it is all a horrible sad case, she poisioned her husband, he worked in a pub so i assume he was a drunken bully, thats why she murdered him. and the poor daughter losing both parents.

I was thinking the same Annie, she was just a baby and it seems so unfair  :'(

There is a marriage in September 1881 for a Rosanna Tarver & John Henry Long, registered in Shipston on Stour which covered Chipping Campden then..........a possibility I suppose  ???

Well now we've all flooded our keyboards  :'( :'( :'( .... where do we go from here ?

I was looking to see if there was a Chipping Campden girl in 1861 - either Ann Anna or Rosanna  but nothing came up !! .... I imagine she either got married - so is under another name - or she's emigrated somewhere !

Is she a relation of yours tww ? do you know anything else about her family ?

Annie  :)
