You're welcome. Poor thing widowed so young. She may have had children that she left with a friend? I'll have a check.

In case it's of interest to you.

And a couple of houses over a George Makepeace, 58 (wife's father) - the wife being Laura Hammond. And amusingly it has him as "ordinary ag lab" (isn't that the story for most LOL)

Debbie Report 24 Sep 2008 00:54

Well it could be I guess depending who Sarah Sr is.
Bilton is Rugby which is where they (Charles & Jemima )married and where Charles died
