[next2normal]

hi again
Got Great results last time so  i try again

Well same family of sorts
I am trying to find who the father of James Earl son of Esther Earl from Bramley
yet another illegitimate child and a brother to William Earl who was illegitimate to Esther Earl  and James Longhurst
Foot note there is a James Longhurst  in the area having a lot of children to other women
Also Esther Earl Married a William Warner who is also illegitimate, his mother is Leah Warner
And her sister Milly Warner had a  illegitimate child to a James Longhurst named "{Mary Longhurst Warner"
there maybe more than one james as the numbers are too many for one guy, mind you he did end up in prison..
And lived to a grand old age of 94 and buried in Christ Church Shamley green 11 Feb 1887

but my main interest in this post is father of James Earl, and i wont be surprised if it is that guy
so thanks in advance

Well if no father is on the birth or baptism it's not likely you will ever find out for sure.

How do you know James was the father of William Earl and how far apart were the boys born?
