OK

I bow to Gins superior information

Although I must admit that the handwriting as showing on the ancestry site could be taken as Rachel.


I wonder if the Fairweathers had been there for some time, and naming the son "Ruchet" was a nod to friendship, or to the fact that the 2 mothers were pregnant at the same time?

Linkfield House was definitely a big house ....... 13 rooms, and 16 people living there (9 men, 7 women)

The transcription(s) from site to site can be correct/incorrect but the 'image' of the census is a 'scan' of the original

Gins ........

do you honestly and truly think I don't know that?

really!

I said that the writing on the image COULD be taken for Rachel, meaning at first glance.

......... and I do admit that I didn't look at the image at midnight your time.

That was neglectful of me ............. but I don't need an elementary lesson in reading censuses.

I thought you must 'know that' :-)

The image is VERY clear, good hand writing but if you were tired, it may have confused you

Midnight, UK time, is what in CA.....7ish ;-)
