How often do you come across a child who is obviuosly illegitimate.?
My gran on my mothers side was such a child and it is known in the family .
her Mother was a servant when she had gran and no father is listed on her birth certificate .
So this then becomes a dead end .
However an assumption could be made it was either the house owner or his son/sons who were responsible or one of the other male servants .
So my question is how many big houses were there in the Biddenden area that would have servants .?
or would even small houses have servants as i cant find Esther Wildish on the 1911 census at home.
