Hi everone,
I have just been going over this thread from the beginning and marking what I need to do at the Met Archives.

I keep asking myself, as someone lse did, I cant remember who right now

Why did Emmanuel and Susan Palmer never marry

it would seem to buck the trend with his brothers , in as much as we know at the moment.
They were both in the early 20's when Phillips was b in 1854 so I don't see how either could be widowed.
Perhaps we should see if they married later in life, I had not done that .
