It would be interesting to see what Sarah said on the marriage certificate
Her step brothers and sisters would have known she wasn't their father's daughter. She might have asked her mother, so she had someting to enter on the register.

Nobody seems to have bothered to buy the marriage certificate. The online trees have no parents for her.

Update:
My tree developed from an Ancestry tree with just 37 people in it has now revealed the DNA connection. This person is a mutual DNA match with the person whose tree I have been investigating in this thread. There is only one other shared match - they are parent and child, it seems. It was a Lincolnshire connection going back to the hamlet of Braceby where OH's Lincolnshire Newton family lived. Ann Dawson married Thomas Newton and the line in question descends from one of her sisters. I can't yet see the connection between the tree with the proven connection and the tree relating to this thread yet, but if I pursue the Lincolnshire lines I should find it in time. I shall contact the DNA match in the next day or two with my findings. |
