Kinshar,

If this is your family they are showing in the 1861 census not with a Harriet but with Hawtin again son, so it wasnt as mistake as I first thought.

Not Sure if its the right family.

Theres a Sarah J French dau of John and Mary born abt 1860, whether this is her in 1861 and a mistake was made by the enumerator.

Would you like the '71 info, there is another child Leonard.
