Not what you hoped for.

Oh dear not at all but many thanks for that clarification. Now I have an extra problem as Elizabeth Painter is the right age for the Mrs George Davies on the censuses BUT our Bertha was born 1866 three years before the Painter marriage Bertha and Mary Ann born 1863 are with George and Elizabeth on the 1871 and 1881 census as daughters
I need to get at the baptism for Bertha and wait for her birth certificate to see who her mother really was but just now it looks like there are two George Davies/Davis in Bridgnorth. At least I can link the one son of Richard to the marriage to Elizabeth Painter.
