I'm wondering if it's Jemmima. And guess what? she doesn't appear on the 1861. O well, another 10 years of deaths and 6 of marriages to look through and such florid handwriting too!

The other name is Jessie - I think you are right. Dea x

In 1861 the mother and son (can't remember which) are living together. Think I'll look there and see if there could be a Jessica Broughton elsewhere or the other name I'm thinking of.

No, they don't seem to have registered any of them, though if Thomas (junior's) age is out by 2 years there may be a possible. christening in Stepney. Knowing my luck that'll be the son of the other Elizabeth Broughton from Anglesey born 1808 who was living in Hoxton.

I think it could be Jessicca ?? There seems to be a fold in the page and it looks like Jess ssicca ?? Have you looked on 1861? Dea x

I can't say what I think it looks like in case I influence anyone's opinion. This lot are a nightmare! They have been no end of trouble. If only they'd stayed in one location like they were supposed to back then! How will I ever track their marriage when they travelled to God knows how many parishes. Guess that should take care of my pension when I retire!

looks like, Jammie? to me. have you checked for a birth on the index? if Jammie is there it would confirm the name. Roy

I'm not convinced it's Jammie but the enumerator must have had a lot to transcribe as his writing is appalling. (Or perhaps a lot to drink!)

Roy, I'm trying to suss out the third childs name. Gina, they appear as Braughton on Ancestry and were living at 18 Poole Street Hoxton Old Town Middx. I think I know what it says but I want to see if others think the same way.
