Hello Margaret Don't want to sound pernickety but....................... how did she die before she was born? [vbg] You wrote - she died 1865 but was probably born 1881 - 1885. Did you mean she died in 1965?

You are not being pernickety. I made a mistake - not sure if it was a senior moment or the result of my frustration! I meant to say that she was born between 1781 and 1785, and she died in 1865.
