There are several mysteries that have evolved since I started look into Amelia Anne. I found her name in a tree posted on a personal site.
Besides the confusing details already detailed, there are more.
The gentleman who has the tree posted had a death certificate for Amelia but the parents name are inaccurate and what looks like to me a melding of family details, surnames etc.
There is a story posted on Ancestry for Susannah Shepard/ Doherty/ Atkins (by different folks , I presume) that further confuses the Doherty~Atkins story; when it comes to dates, details and parentage.
I don't want to mention the tree without the owners permission but it seems there may be a bit more to unravel. Earlier today I asked for permission to quote his tree for my source and received it but posting details in a forum may not be what gentleman is expecting. Looking at it well rested might make things clearer.
Thank you for the additional feedback!
