I cant link my family to the sandwich Finnis family at the moment whereas I know that the maidstone Charlotte Finnis is my great grandma.

Maybe I will have to do more research on the Cornwallis family at Linton and see if I can do it that way. Dad has always told this story but he could have got it muddled over the years bless him! He seems to think it was one of charlottes sisters which would be either Alice Finnis, or Annie Finnis unless there were more sisters that I havent found yet!

 :D Thats great I will try and find out who Elizabeth married! I discovered that the couple and son who were lodgers were the daughter Annie and her husband and son. I wonder if Elizabeth is the link!? Thank you for finding her!
