Three of my other certificates arrived yesterday. Two of them (the Nelmes births) are as yet unrelated, but I'm sure will be tied in one day. Still, I know that they're not what I was after now...
However, the third proved that indeed Caroline Louisa Jewitt was a missing sibling of my great-grandad, Will Jewitt. My Grandad had an auntie who died of croup aged 7 months.
For some reason, I'm always particulary pleased when I've restored a long-lost infant to the family tree. They may not have descendents of their own, so someone has to remember that they existed.
