Yes, the word "male" seems to be a wrong assumption on the part of the transcriber. No sex is mentioned on the image of the original baptism document.

Maybe the transcriber hadn't heard of the female name Jessie, and assumed it was the male name Jesse. (Or just misread it that way.)

You would need the Cert., Death for that Jessie 1932 (41).

(can't see Male on Baptism reference posted)

I've come across a Jessie Stow marrying a Clee, West Ham 1918, I wonder if this could be the same family. I'm happy that Jessie is a female, I imagine the baptism is wrong..

1901 reference was Chelsea Workhouse Infirmary.

I think you could be right. Just found a death for a Samuel on freebmd. Registered June '05 Chelsea, age given as 57.

I can't see a marriage for them, but I think Samuel was married before?

Thanks, I tried the Stow variation and came up with nowt ! Well done. Hadn't clocked the son. She had a great uncle, Charles Thomas Siggs.
