Re: Letitia Gelling, anc. of Letitia Jane Morrison

More things to ponder over.

Whichever Letitia this turns out to be (bp 1750 or bp 1763), I'm wondering where the other one is. There's only one Letitia Gelling burial in Brian's index, 17 Dec 1802 Marown. This happens to be the same day and place as a burial for Charlotte Kelly, d of William Kelly and Letitia Gelling. This last Letitia Gelling was bp 1769 d of Paul Gelling and Jane [Gelling]. I've proposed separately that Jane Gelling belongs to this family (bp 1740).

Significant? or coincidence?

I have no Letitia X's marrying into a Gelling family, so I don't think the 1802 burial is a wife of a Gelling.

Anybody got any insight?
