In Response To: Re: cecil Christian ()

Hi David, You might be thinking about the "conversation" between me and Donna when I wrote "By the way, just to further complicate things, the two Roberts in Foxdale could have been cousins. Thomas bapt 1796 (son of William Christian & Ann Kelly) had a brother Mark bapt 1785". - So not referring to the William Christians, who I don't think were related.

I can see your point with only one Cecil Christian showing up in later records, but Margaret would be unlikely to have still been breastfeeding, with her previous child having been born in 1892, and Cecil not born until 1895. It is possible Susanna's baby was adopted by someone who changed his names. If you can find out what happened to her other young children, it might help. And also investigate court records to see whether someone decided what to do with the orphans?
