Betsey's age is uncertain, because it's a bit of a scribble!!

[etaylor]

Great so Betsy must be Elizabeth. thanks for this info,

[etaylor]

Just had a quik look at my paper work if Betsy was 10 in 1851 would make her older than 18 in 1863.

[KGarrad]

Like I said - her age is uncertain, because of scribble and enumerator's marks!

Could be 10, 8 or 6?!

[etaylor]

Makes her 8 unless she was a twin which i dont think so somehow,Thanks again for this.

[etaylor]

Yes it all fits in. Thanks
