Research Notes

It is unusual for a couple from Portsmouth found themselves up in Sunderland, this move would have been a big deal in 19^th century England. I have found that John Mundy worked for HM Excise hence him being in port towns. --February 16, 2019 Jo Fitz-Henry

I have changed the death details for John to 21 June 1839 in Sunderland as there is no John Mundy who died in Portsmouth 1878 in the GRO indexes. --February 17, 2019 Jo Fitz-Henry
