I think I played with Elizabeth Davenport before and dismissed her, cannot remember why now without a good rummage through my notes. Ah, maybe because one of the grandchildren marries a Davenport, although why that should rule her out.......yes, alfred Whittaker,1861 son of Edward/Edmund Whittaker Garlick, marries an Elizabeth Davenport in 1882. Ah yes, she died and Alfred shoved off to South Africa and remarried and then died out there. Tree on Ancestry etc.
Those subs are new to me but they do have definite dates, which I always think is reassuring, don't you.
Why would William and Eliz take their children back to Hollinwood to have them baptised, I wonder? I need to tread carefully because of the OTHER William Whittaker, who led me so fearfully astray for many years.
