[5448] Notes: Mary, Harriet, and John NEWTON, were baptised as the illegitimate children of Martha NEWTON - no father's name given. It is assumed that all three children had the same father, but more than one father is a possibility.

Notes: At one time, there was some confusion about Matilda's surname.
At her 1880 marriage to George WITT, her surname was CONELLY, but at the birth
of daughter Maud Florence, she was CONWAY. Further research suggests that
CONWAY must be an error, and that Matilda was definitely a CONNELLY, or a spelling
variant of it, e.g. CONNOLLY, CONELLY, CONLEY, etc.

1881 census of Hoxton, Middlesex - aged
25, born Middx. Shoreditch [a very odd one, because Elizabeth's married surname
