Ever heard of the name "Bouaty"?

[pinefamily]

Could it be a misspelling of Beauty? I know its an unusual first name, but thats what struck me when I saw the excerpt original.

Could it be a misspelling of Beauty?

For a girl perhaps, but I read that as "twin sons of Richard &  ..." ??

Ooops, misread original post. Now I'm confused, I read it as "twin sons of Richard &  ..." ??

Having looked at the writing on the rest of the page, I suspect that it's probably Bounty.

The full entry reads William & George Edwards Twin Sons of Richard and B....... Lambeth Street.

Could Bounty be a Quaker name?  Or some other religious group? 

I seem to remember that names like that were used quite often at one time

Have you tried looking for a marriage for the parents to see if there is a clue to her name there?

or any christennigs of subsequent children, or earlier ones?

I tried looking for the marriage of the parents and baptism of further children and drew a blank on both accounts. I guess this means one of the following applies

1. The marriage was abroad
2. The real nmae is not bouaty, or vaiant
3. The wife dies after the birth of the twins and the father remarried
4. The family moved to an area not covered by the IGI and\or Ancestry

What sort of dates are we talking?
