If the birth is 1838 then this Ellen Bartlett shows up
Jun 1838 Faringdon 6 155 (area spans 4 counties including Oxon) and would possibly match the place of marriage above and this could be her in 1841. Longworth is half way between Faringdon and Oxford

Looks like he did, sad! But even with the coincidence of the middle name, it's not him for certain, though I should say probable. Do you have any more details on Ellen Bartlett like birth year/place to try and track her down?

DawnWilson

DawnWilson Report 14 Feb 2012 16:15
