Found my Twigg ancestors living in Longford Derbyshire. Martha Twigg my great great grandmother was living there with her huge farming family in 1851. She is listed as a scholar but was 16 which was unusual for that time. Ten years later, when she was 26 she was living in lodgings with her illegitimate daughter, Jane Constance who was only a few weeks old. I wonder who she was. Was she really a scholar at 16. Her daughter Jane wasn't even able to sign her name when she married John Lander. I wonder who Jane's father was. Could it have been John Bull the Twigg's servant? He was the same age as Martha?

MUSTN'T MAKE ASSUMPTIONS.
