Many thanks for transferring the management of James Smith junior to me. And as they say in Scotland, "Lang may yer lum reek." (A wish that you may live a long time -- long may your chimney smoke is the direct translation.)
The merger (Knapp-76 and Knapp-51) had been proposed and someone had set it aside as an unmerged match, so that was what I was responding to.
Not much difference between birth dates. Must either be birth and baptism dates or a transcription error somewhere between the 4 and 9.
As to place, I am not sure but Wormingford Essex is where her parents married.
