Note – there are two Johns in the table. The first John was originally labelled as a daughter though his age was in the column for “age of male”. A different handwriting has crossed out daur and replaced it with son.
Is Ann Mangnall the sister of Alice?

Maria | Stepdaur (note) | 5 | do | do | (GM152) |
Note – Maria (GM152) is probably the daughter of Maria (JM055), not the step daughter. I believe this to be the case for two reasons:-
- Nancy (JM043) who I believe to be the mother of the other children, died in 1842;
- because then mother and daughter would have the same name!
