Ellen Elizabeth Langforth Smith
born Mar qr 1839 Portsea Island
died Sep qr 1840 Portsea Island

She isn't on the Hampshire Baptism Index for 1813 - 1841.

Who were her parents?

She must be one of my wider Smith family - I already have an Ellen Elizabeth Smith and and Ellen Elizabeth Langford Smith.

I suppose you would have to get her birth or death cert to find out, Elizabeth.

Oh, wait, this isn't her, is it?

Kiterunner, this one is later!

I have

Ellen Elizabeth Langford Smith
baptised 8 April 1816 St John's Portsea
buried 28 April 1816 St John's Portsea
parents Robert and Mary Smith (Robert son of Walter Smith and Elizabeth, nee Langford)

Helena Elizabeth Langford Smith
baptised 17 April 1817 St John's Portsea
parents as above
I don't know what happened to her.


Ellen Elizabeth Smith
baptised 7 Oct 1828 St John's Portsea
parents Robert Walter Smith and Jane (nee Buckle)
This Robert Smith is the son of the Robert and Mary Smith above, so the two girls were his sisters.


Now
Ellen Elizabeth Langforth Smith
born Mar qr 1839 Portsea Island
died Sep qr 1840 Portsea Island

I think "Langford" has changed into "Langforth".
It seems a huge coincdence.
