A blended family

In 1638, James Cutler and his wife Anna had a daughter, Hannah Cutler. In the same year, Thomas King and his wife Mary had a daughter, Hannah King.

Seven years later, their respective spouses having died, James Cutler married Mary King, and the households were combined. As a result, there were now two seven-year old Hannahs in the household, which would cause significant confusion in later years.

Death

At Cambridge Farms 7 Dec 1654.[3]

Please! And please change her LNAB to Unknown. She clearly slipped through the cracks. Thanks, Liz!

Hi! I was running the trails for Margaret (Neville) le Scrope and arrived (surprisingly) at this profile.

OK if I disconnect her from Richard Bernard?

just looked up the Bernards in Richardson's Royal Ancestry, Volume I, pp 345-346, BERNARD #17. Francis Bernard, Esq., #18. Francis Bernard, Esq., #19. [Col.] William Bernard - the only Mary is Mary Woolhouse, wife of the 2nd Francis.

Actually we need to disconnect Parent Robert (they tell me he hac know dtr Mary) and change name to Unknown. Objections?

Anderson-35092 Robin Anderson
Looks like a merge in 2014 started this confusion. Can we disconnect Mary Bernard and create a new Unknown as wife of Thomas King and James Cutler?
posted by Robin Anderson
B-404 Anne B
Her surname needs to be changed to Unknown, since no sources have turned up for her maiden name.

See G2G to discuss.
