Research Notes

It is my belief that Sarah Harding was most probably married prior to marrying John Lawrie. Of course the marriage record does show her as being a (W), and the fact that she was aged 56 years at the time of that marriage, would mean there was a previous husband. I will continue to try to find out more about Sarah Harding. This is an adoption record so I will work on it as I can. Vicki Heneker.
