Research Notes

• Although the marriage record gives Rose's name as Ashfield it is an error it should be Ashman, this is clear from sources on her profile.
  
• There was a Samuel Plumb who died in 1858, he was the same age as Samuel, but as Rose was a widow in 1847 it is clearly not his record. I therefore accept the date on Phyl's transcription even though I have not been able to verify it online. The same applies to the Settlement Certificate, but as the children were all born in Soham I have no reason to doubt it.
  
• I deleted some ancestry sources because they were not explicit and the links did not work. 6/3/22
