Heywood, thank you. BOTH births (Robert & James) have no father entered , this is puzzling me greatly. I can understand one but two over several years , I can't understand it.
Death Cert. cleary states that Margaret was a Servant , died at only 35, father Hamilton Devenport. (Perhaps domestic service is the key to the anonymity of her "husband" / partner on both of her sons birth cert. )
