Person:Jane Unknown (919)

Jane's origins and maiden name are unknown. Her first confirmed sighting is on 9th November 1718 when she and her husband Isaac Bracey had a daughter named Elizabeth baptised at the small village of Letchworth in Hertfordshire. She was the first of six children baptised there between 1718 and 1733: five girls and a boy. The youngest daughter died aged three in 1735.

Jane and Isaac both appear to have lived about 60 years after their eldest child's baptism, suggesting they were probably in their eighties when they died. Isaac died in 1778. Jane died the following year, being buried in Letchworth on 18th September 1779.
