1857 baptism: notes in margins
« on: Thursday 30 May 24 14:02 BST (UK) »
Hello,
I am having trouble deciphering the sentances in both margins of the Alice McDonald entry, from the St Jude's Church, Hunslet, Leeds, 1857 baptism register.

Left margin: some of the words? youngest child is born 1850

Right margin: some of the words? Married in haste when

I have transcribed the entry.

Any help will be most appreciated.

Regards,

Janet

I will have a stab at the left margin-
child youngest d... 85 in feb N 1935 therefore(triangle of 3 dots is a common abbreviation for therefore) born 1850
Sounds like the d word should be died?

Right hand side, I see a couple of possibilities:

‘Married in hast when daughter came about’.
‘Married a/in Hart when daughter Anne ***** (died??)’

William Wright McDonald married Mary Pollard MARRIED  2 Nov 1835 St Peters Leeds Yorkshire. Mary and William had 9 children.
Emma MacDonald
1836–1875
George MacDonald
1839–1872
William MacDonald
1842–1875
Alfred MacDonald
1844–1877
Eliza Ann MacDonald
1847–1916
Mary Jennett MacDonald
1849–
Alice MacDonald
1851–1925
Henry Wright MacDonald

Walter James MacDonald

Looking at this information it maybe Mary Jennett abr saying she was born 1850. there is a public tree on ancestry also 1851, 1861 and 1871 census with this family. cheers
