   A death for Ann      Hartismere      Sep 1870 age 41.

  It could be she went to live with aunt & uncle and just stayed.

Ann not at home in 1861, so maybe that's why Harriet was with aunt - and as Tazzie says, just stayed

A son, Jarvis Rosier, 10 b Wetheringsett, is with him

Jarvis seems to be David J. Rosier in 1891, in service in Cottingley, Yorks: RG12/3534/25/5

...and simply David Rosier at birth reg, Jun 1870 Hartismere 4a 559.  I wonder whether his mother died of complications from the birth.

Anna

Oh dear, Ann is a patient in 1861 at Woodbridge, in the Lunatic asylum

   That could be the reason she is with aunt & uncle then....if Ann suffered after the birth what we would say post natal depression now......she may have been locked away if she could not cope with looking after a small child.

  I think the birth cert will answer things clearly.

                 Tazzie

  I think the birth cert will answer things clearly.

I think we've all done very well without it 

Over to you, Alison, for the birth cert, and if you could come back and post the details, we'd all like to know the outcome
