Hi all the Benjamin 1829, Edward 1829 and George 1831 are mine, sons of George Willetts and Sarah Harris from Halesowen. Linell.

Thanks for that Linell, I wondered why some of those names didn't seem to fit

How about Keziah, do we agree that I should add her as daughter of George and Sarah (unknown)?

i would say are bro and sister as christend together parents the same
