Esther Mudge is 'visiting' James Cole and Harriet in 1871.

And when I check the FULL index........guess what!!!

Cole, James, Okehampton 5b/723 Dec 1863

The last digit is blurred, but I feel confident that it is a '3'

Checked the freebmd image and I don't know how the transcriber even guessed at 2 or 3 - all there is is a dot!

Eric,

Did you check the full index on Ancestry? Their images have been digitally enhanced which is why they are sometimes clearer than freebmd's but there is always the risk that the enhancement is wrong.
