I've just been adding a side-twig to my tree. I added a husband and four children for a female distant cousin - the four children were born between 1848 and 1865. Should I have a look at what happened to these four children? I decided I would, but wasn't really in the mood as the previous family I did yesterday (sibling of the distant cousin) had one of those difficult trees where all the children marry more than once andmoved around a lot producing children right, left and centre!
Now I feel bad, because of these four children I've added this morning two died in their teens (I don't have many 12 and 14 year old deaths on my tree, so wasn't expecting that). Another died aged 42 after a single life as a servant and the one surviving daughter never left home and was last seen running the family pub with her ageing mother in 1901.
Now I'm wishing they'd all had long happy lives...............
