I assumed her mother was Jemima as this is who she is with in the later census reports and they describe Harriet as daughter of Jemima and Abraham Bates, but we already know she is not the daughter of Abraham.

I am just going to have to pick one of the three 1859 births certs and take it from there, though you can bet your life the last one I order will be the one I want or that it will prove that she was illegitamate after all this.

Here goes, eeny, meeny, miney mo!

Thanks again for your help, this has slowly driven me up the wall, I think I owe you a bottle of Brandy at least!

Cheers!

I haven't physically got it yet, but I have ordered it.
According to Free BMD Jemima marries under the name Cooper, I really hope the cert tells me something differant, a late, another formerly would be great, but that will probably drive me scatty too !

Of course I will let you know, though it may take me a while to sort out it out. I am on holiday next week, Hubby has banned me from taking laptop!, so will be itching to get started when I come back.

I have ordered one cert to begin with and will see what that says and whether I will have to order all three damn things before I get the right one.

Thanks again Dea for all your hard work, I just hope it has been worth it.
