• Notes

  Theresa/Thirza is found residing with her parents in 1851. In 1881 she was residing with her parents and brother James and is mistakenly recorded as James' wife. Later census records and her death record show her as significantly younger than she truly was. It is presumed that she lied about her age. The 1851 census which shows her as being 9 years old is presumed to be the more reliable. It's also possible that there were two sisters with the same name and the earlier Theresa died ca 1852 and the second was born about the same time and named after her deceased sister. In which case the later records might be giving the correct age.
