Well, we've certainly wasted lots of time searching for information that was already known  :-\ as well as being given conflicting and evasive answers on this thread  ::)

The other thread also gives another version of one of the daughter's name. I see no reason to assume that one or both could not still be alive so their details really shouldn't have been posted here.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
