She was born about 1778. She died in 1850 aged 72.
Lauretta married again in 1825 at Birmingham to John Delahay (husband William Hodgkins died in 1812). She was unable to sign her name but her name is ‘Laret Hodgkins” for her second marriage.
I have her in 1841 living in West Bromwich with one of her Hodgkins grandsons. She died in 1850 as Lauretta Delay, her death was registered by one of her son’s wives.
