 if we could work out a link to Britannia i would be over the moon  
            all i have on her is a d/o/b/ for her of 24 Apr 1853 that was given to be but ive never found any proof for it, she married Thomas holland in luppit devon on 11/7/1870 father Joseph hughes agian i was told wife name possible Eliza but no proof she gave Hampshire as place of birth on all census
                   Matilda  

I have Britannia Hughes born 1851 daughter of Joseph Hughes marriage seems correct as to what I was given
witnesses were Robert Hughes & Rachel Holland
They had 8 kids

is there any chance this could be her?

Hi Cathy,

Have read all the posts with interest.  Your Harriet Isaacs is the sister of my 2 x great grandfather James Isaacs b. 1822 Broad Hinton.  His father was Thomas Isaacs a tin man.  James Isaacs and his very large family eventually settled in Penselwood/Stoke Trister.  I know this doesn't provide you with any more information but I guess we have a connection!   Ginny

[cathayb]

yes ginny we have a connection in more ways then you realise.i have quite a bit on your family.please send your email address and i will get back to you privately.now i am working on the assumption that sarah may have been a jones!maybe that is why they used the name jones.found alot of likely connections in devon 51 cencus by putting in sarah/robert/charles/etc.,go in check out 61 cencus now to see if i can connect them.love cathay
