Mary Battye changed to Betty Battye [8 April 2024]

Hi. Surely this must be Betty Battye, born 7 Jun 1841. Betty's baptism record doesn't indicate that she had a twin, and there is no reason to believe she had one. While the 1841 census was supposed to be taken on 6 Jun 1841, enumeration was often late, so it isn't surprising that Betty was listed (unnamed) in the 1841 census. Alternately, her birth date in the baptism record could be wrong, but I suspect the workhouse was enumerated on 8 Jun 1841 (or later).--DataAnalyst 16:06, 27 January 2024 (UTC)--Goldenoldie 09:17, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
