Hi
I am looking for Hannah Prescott. She was married to a John Jones. I only know of one child also named John who was born in 1838, could have been 1828 in Somerset. I have no other information about her.
Hope someone can help.
Barbara.

Hi :)May I just ask, John was born 1838, 1828 you also mention, could that also be his birth year or was it the year of Hannah's marriage?
How do you know she married a John Jones?
Thanks, just need to clarify.

Oznannie,
I have two conflicting dates. I have access to another tree which states his birth date as 1838 and dying in 1888 which of course makes him 50 yrs old at time of death. However I also have a copy of his death certificate which gives his birthdate as 1828. On that cert. is his mother's name Hannah and father John. The problem I have is his father was born in 1823 and his mother Hannah Priscott ( could be wrong spelling)was born abt. 1820.... hence to two dates. I can't find any reference to their marriage other than their names on the Death cert.
John was born in Somerset England either 1828/1838 and died in Deniliquin, nsw.
It would help if there were not so many John Jones.
Hope this clarifies things a little.
Barbara.
