I personally would put them in my tree. They are part of the history of the family and the social history of infant mortality

not sure what you mean by 'which one would I go with' or have you answered your own question?

I suspect that that 1891 is either an enumerator error - we are talking about a Yorkshire accent in Lancashire so from 'another country'! (apologies to Yorkshire folk) or a mistranscription as it could be an 'i' on the image

Think I've got it at last I think Morris and Morres are the same person and the ones that didnt survive have been missed out of the Morres list Thank You
Would you put them on your tree if they didn't survive ??? R.I.P.

That might not be the one???

It is the only one in 1891 that had a William and a Susan/Susannah together?

Do you know if she had any brothers or sisters that could help find her?



Also, probably because of slowness of the site perhaps, you have posted this thread 3 times so best to delete the other two if no one has replied on them?
