How our line connects

Not connected to our line yet. This family is on the English line the DNA points to, through the Wears of Hertfordshire. No document yet joins that line to the family of record that the story follows, so nothing on it is drawn as ours; it has pages of its own.

The people

The English line — 3

PersonDatesGradeHow we know
Caroline Wallis 1862–1957 Probable Her later life is documented and her marriage is an index entry. Her birth in early 1862 and her parents, Joseph Wallis and Sarah Field of Weston, rest on a baptism, two censuses and a run of Weston registers that name a Caroline Wallis and her family; no document yet joins that girl to Caroline Castle.
Joseph Wallis 1827–1912 Probable His baptism, his marriage and his death are register and index entries matched by name, parish and age; the censuses of 1851, 1871 and 1881 fit them, and no document names him as Caroline's father. His age in the censuses and at death differs by up to three years.
William Wallis 1807–c.1850 Probable His baptism and his marriage are register entries matched by name and parish, and he is the only William Wallis baptised at Weston between 1790 and 1810; his death is inferred from the 1851 census, in which his wife is a widow.
