Hi Sue
how do you know that that Elizabeth that married William Whitehouse Jukes
is the dau of Wilkinson Hatton and Mary Wall?
if you havent got the marriage you cant be sure of the father surely unless clues on census
and do you mean bcc not bbc....
and if so what do you mean
sorry don't understand as we dont have the Wilkinson info on we only have the Jukes on ie Minnies father

1844 is the correct date for a marriage between Wilkinson hatton and mary ann wall
but we dont have that on BCC yet as we need more proof on this Eliz Hatton and her parents
