Summer, did you spot Mr Churchyard and Miss Barns !

Has anyone found David's birth yet?

Ah right... it says Ind but the transcription of the group is all over the place from looking at the original. Either way it looks like it might be a farm or something.

I did LD lol.

1841 is a red herring, go for David's birth followed by James' birth on the IGI
