That's this one

me:   Sarah Atkin
Gender:   Female
Baptism Date:   3 Apr 1831
Baptism Place:   Burton Upon Trent,Stafford,England
Father:   William Atkin
Mother:   Mary


Problem I have with Burton on Trent is it's a town and wouldn't Sarah say she came from there instead of Lichfield. Burntwood would be small and Lichfield the nearest known place, it's a city with a cathedral.

Thanks for that BumbleB

I was searching for William/Sarah Hudson.


Something is wrong with Anc for me when I try to load images it makes me sigh in again and I lose my search ::)

So may have to bow out of this one!
