Yes I think she used Mary Jane or Jane as suited
the names of her kids echoe her parents names too.
and the age for her in different census is good

linell wrote:Hi Peter, snap, also received a message from a distant relation in Perth, Alfred Priest and Eliza Willetts, who are her Grandparents, she gave me this information:-
Alfred Priest Married a Mary?
They had 2 daughters
Alfred then Married Eliza Willetts, their son was Albert Priest who Married Lily Willetts.
Daughter of Albert Priest and Lily Willetts Constance Olive b 13.12.1909 Married Samuel Wm Smith b Cradley Heath 24.7.1904 Marriage 21.11.1931 St Michaels Langley.
I then have their children but think they are still living.
Albert's Maternal Grandparents were William Willetts and Hannah (maybe Bissell.)
My contact is also questioning Mary Jane Gadd and Jane Gadd, is she one of the same? Linell.
here a little bit more we can add unless jenni makes herself a member and adds to the info we got, carnt see much more we can do but archive it till look ups are done ?

I see we have achived Albert and Lilly Priests but see we have William Willetts and
Hannah Bissell on tribal b 1801 and a
Betsy Willetts b 1827 all in Pear Tree Lane. Thought there may be a link as Alberts maternal grandparent were said to be William and Hannah Willetts/Bissell Just an idea suki

So we have to prove that Eliza Willetts parents are William Willetts and Hannah Bissell now.....
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... d=69675541I have a look up to do that will tell us the father of Eliza Willetts
but how will that tell us if Hannah Bissell is the mother
can you post that link Suki on tribal where you say Hannah is with William in Pear tree lane
cos the only one I can find is this one
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =582955152and this Hannah is born really early 1801
and Eliza Willetts is b 1840
where is Betsy Willetts on tribal can you post?

If you go into your second link an click on Frederick son of William and Hannah Bissell who is married to Elizabeth Willetts you will see in the comments that Elizabeth was living next to her mother Betsy Willetts b1821 in Pear Tree Lane. in 1851 Hannah and William are living somewhere else. Not sure how to post a link. Just thought it might tie in. Suki
Seem to have all the right names but some how the dates don't seem to match
