Just out of curiosity, is there a sister called Sarah Rebecca Onslow b1826 also in Wapping?

If so, then she married Francis Finnegan (Fenegan - or whichever spelling it is! ), Caroline's brother.

I'm tracing the Finnegan family forward, but noticed the same Onslow name.

How many more children did she have that didn't survive??

Other branches of my family had 5 - 10 children and yet most lived. Poor Caroline having so many die.

Yes, I know, mortality rates at the time were high, yet it is still harrowing enough to deal with......
