This probably isn't her. The christening is 1858 but doesn't say when birth was. Emily Ellen Willis Female ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Event(s): Birth: Christening: 10 JAN 1858 Thatcham, Berkshire, England Parents: Father: Amos Willis Family Mother: Harriet Arnold
