the next curiosity - Emily WAITE 1809-1809 (General)

I get quite moved by the number of child deaths - reading about it in books is one things, but when they turn out to be your own family (Emily was a 3rd gt grandaunt)it's far more poignant. Then there's the US censuses which list how many children a woman has had, then how many were still alive. 13 - 4 is my "record" iirc. Social Services would have apoplexy today!
