EDIT following information put later I think this is Sewel badly written and therefore mis-transcribed.

Just putting this in case it's relevant to the family in some way, but might just be a co0incidence - Hannah is called Pheasey looking at original:

Have you got the marriage certificate for Father's name, and birth certificate for Parents' names?

brummiejan Report 13 Feb 2011 10:20

Does it? I tried and failed to make it say Sewel - but this is what it must say, and Hannah is Harriet's sister. We also now know he married Mary. Will amend the posting. Thanks for looking.
