Hi, Alli,

I've assumed that they are the correct family - Ann and daughter Fanny, living with Ann's other daughter Ellen and her husband, Herman Cronheimer, in Norwich.

However, Fanny married Albert Odell in 1881, in Cambridge, so she got about a bit.

The reference on FreeBMD for ordering the birth certificate quoted Tavistock as the registration district. I don't know which villages this covers.

I was expecting the certificate today, but no luck.
