You really need to get the marriage cert to confirm Jane's father's name and occupation.

Looks as if Jane was baptised twice as the 1848 baptism that Ann posted gives the same DOB as the 1847 (23 June 1847); abode in both given as Workhouse.

Again many thanks to all. My difficulty was the number of Jane johnsons born around that time and being new to this not being able to see the wood for the trees. Baptised twice, eh ... Curiouser and curiouser....
