 Comment There is a mix of "Miss" and "Mrs" in use, and ore of the Mrs later in life. I would propose from the 1850 census where two of the same name (sisters more likely than sister and sister-in-law that we have a Miss. I also note the year of birth wandering from 1820s to late 1830s as another indicator of looseness. — billinghurst sDrewth 03:14, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
