Relationship

2nd great-grandmother of Penny Graham (nee Emerson-Elliott)

Charts

Ancestor Chart -- Penny GRAHAM (nee EMERSON-ELLIOTT)
Descendant Chart -- John BATTEN

NoteD

     Joseph and Elizabeth Batten, Penny Graham's great great grandparents, both died at home of typhus fever within a week of each other.
     Typhus fever (quite different from typhoid fever) is a bacterial infection spread by parasites, particularly body lice. A major epidemic occurred during the Great Irish Famine between 1846 and 1849 and this spread to England, where it was sometimes called "Irish fever" and was noted for its virulence. It killed people of all social classes, as lice were endemic and inescapable, but it hit particularly hard in the lower or "unwashed" social strata.
     Lice were not identified as the transmitter of typhus until the 1920s and it was only during and after WW2 that adequate treatment regimes were developed.

(Witness) Note

Ann Elizabeth (Elizabeth) Batten;      Elizabeth Batten was probably born in 1836 or 1837 before the civil registration of births commenced. No baptismal record has been found for her.
     In these records, it has been assumed that Elizabeth was the daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth Batten (nee Bedwold) because:
     (a) that appears to have been the view through later generations of the family and that's how it has been recorded by the family and by other researchers;
     (b) that would be the normal inference from the 1841 Census record, although relationships are not stated explicitly in that Census; and
     (c) Elizabeth's 1857 Marriage Certificate (to Charles Rumens) shows her father as Joseph Batten, Carpenter.
     (d) Elizabeth's 1906 Marriage Certificate (to Alfred Green) also shows her father as Joseph Batten, Carpenter.
     However, another (more likely) possibility is that she was the illegitimate daughter of Sarah Batten and an unknown father and was, at least initially, brought up as the child of her grandparents Joseph and Elizabeth Snr. Factors supporting this are:
     (A) In the 1841 Census, Sarah (age 25) is, unusually, listed after her younger brothers and she is followed immediately by Elizabeth (age 4), suggesting the possibility of a mother/daughter relationship.
     (B) Also in the 1841 Census, Elizabeth Snr was shown as age 50, so that she would have been about 47 when Elizabeth Jnr was born -- it is very unlikely, although perhaps not impossible, that she would have had a child at that age.
     (C) In 1844, Sarah married Robert Morley and, in the 1851 Census record for Robert and Sarah, there are also entries for Betsy Morley (age 13) and Maria Morley (age 2), shown as the daughters of Robert Morley. However, Betsy is the same age as Elizabeth Jnr and, of course, Betsy is a common diminutive of Elizabeth. It seems unlikely that Robert Morley was Betsy's father as he would have been about 18 when she was born and Robert and Sarah did not marry until Elizabeth/Betsy was aged 6 or 7. It seems more likely that Elizabeth Jnr was brought into the marriage by Sarah, was adopted by (or at least took the name of) Sarah's husband and was known by the nickname Betsy at that time. Although there are quite a few other Elizabeth/Ann Battens of about that age in the 1851 Census, none of them seems likely to be Elizabeth Jnr.
     (D) In most of the Birth Certificates for Elizabeth Jnr's children, the mother's maiden surname is given as Batten. However, the 1862 Birth Certificate for Frances Sarah shows the mother's maiden name as Morley, which again suggests that Elizabeth Jnr had used the surname Morley at some stage.
     A third (very unlikely) possibility was that Elizabeth Jnr was the daughter of an incestuous relationship between Joseph Batten and Joseph's daughter Sarah. In that case, Joseph would have been both the father and grandfather of Elizabeth Jnr. [16 Oct 2011]
     The death certificate for Sarah Morley shows Elizabeth Rumens as the Informant. This does not seem to provide an indication one way or the other -- Elizabeth was either Sarah's daughter or only sister, and could have been the informant in either capacity. [22 Nov 2013]
     To reflect what I believe was the probable situation, I have included in Relation tags for appropriate family members the assumed relationship according to these records and also the probable alternative to show what might have been the real situation. [3 May 2014]

Mother

Elizabeth Bedwold b. ca 1790/1791, d. 26 Jun 1847

(Witness) Note

Ann Elizabeth (Elizabeth) Batten;      Elizabeth Batten was probably born in 1836 or 1837 before the civil registration of births commenced. No baptismal record has been found for her.
     In these records, it has been assumed that Elizabeth was the daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth Batten (nee Bedwold) because:
     (a) that appears to have been the view through later generations of the family and that's how it has been recorded by the family and by other researchers;
     (b) that would be the normal inference from the 1841 Census record, although relationships are not stated explicitly in that Census; and
     (c) Elizabeth's 1857 Marriage Certificate (to Charles Rumens) shows her father as Joseph Batten, Carpenter.
     (d) Elizabeth's 1906 Marriage Certificate (to Alfred Green) also shows her father as Joseph Batten, Carpenter.
     However, another (more likely) possibility is that she was the illegitimate daughter of Sarah Batten and an unknown father and was, at least initially, brought up as the child of her grandparents Joseph and Elizabeth Snr. Factors supporting this are:
     (A) In the 1841 Census, Sarah (age 25) is, unusually, listed after her younger brothers and she is followed immediately by Elizabeth (age 4), suggesting the possibility of a mother/daughter relationship.
     (B) Also in the 1841 Census, Elizabeth Snr was shown as age 50, so that she would have been about 47 when Elizabeth Jnr was born -- it is very unlikely, although perhaps not impossible, that she would have had a child at that age.
     (C) In 1844, Sarah married Robert Morley and, in the 1851 Census record for Robert and Sarah, there are also entries for Betsy Morley (age 13) and Maria Morley (age 2), shown as the daughters of Robert Morley. However, Betsy is the same age as Elizabeth Jnr and, of course, Betsy is a common diminutive of Elizabeth. It seems unlikely that Robert Morley was Betsy's father as he would have been about 18 when she was born and Robert and Sarah did not marry until Elizabeth/Betsy was aged 6 or 7. It seems more likely that Elizabeth Jnr was brought into the marriage by Sarah, was adopted by (or at least took the name of) Sarah's husband and was known by the nickname Betsy at that time. Although there are quite a few other Elizabeth/Ann Battens of about that age in the 1851 Census, none of them seems likely to be Elizabeth Jnr.
     (D) In most of the Birth Certificates for Elizabeth Jnr's children, the mother's maiden surname is given as Batten. However, the 1862 Birth Certificate for Frances Sarah shows the mother's maiden name as Morley, which again suggests that Elizabeth Jnr had used the surname Morley at some stage.
     A third (very unlikely) possibility was that Elizabeth Jnr was the daughter of an incestuous relationship between Joseph Batten and Joseph's daughter Sarah. In that case, Joseph would have been both the father and grandfather of Elizabeth Jnr. [16 Oct 2011]
     The death certificate for Sarah Morley shows Elizabeth Rumens as the Informant. This does not seem to provide an indication one way or the other -- Elizabeth was either Sarah's daughter or only sister, and could have been the informant in either capacity. [22 Nov 2013]
     To reflect what I believe was the probable situation, I have included in Relation tags for appropriate family members the assumed relationship according to these records and also the probable alternative to show what might have been the real situation. [3 May 2014]

Descendant Chart -- John BATTEN

(Witness) Note

Ann Elizabeth (Elizabeth) Batten;      Elizabeth Batten was probably born in 1836 or 1837 before the civil registration of births commenced. No baptismal record has been found for her.
     In these records, it has been assumed that Elizabeth was the daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth Batten (nee Bedwold) because:
     (a) that appears to have been the view through later generations of the family and that's how it has been recorded by the family and by other researchers;
     (b) that would be the normal inference from the 1841 Census record, although relationships are not stated explicitly in that Census; and
     (c) Elizabeth's 1857 Marriage Certificate (to Charles Rumens) shows her father as Joseph Batten, Carpenter.
     (d) Elizabeth's 1906 Marriage Certificate (to Alfred Green) also shows her father as Joseph Batten, Carpenter.
     However, another (more likely) possibility is that she was the illegitimate daughter of Sarah Batten and an unknown father and was, at least initially, brought up as the child of her grandparents Joseph and Elizabeth Snr. Factors supporting this are:
     (A) In the 1841 Census, Sarah (age 25) is, unusually, listed after her younger brothers and she is followed immediately by Elizabeth (age 4), suggesting the possibility of a mother/daughter relationship.
     (B) Also in the 1841 Census, Elizabeth Snr was shown as age 50, so that she would have been about 47 when Elizabeth Jnr was born -- it is very unlikely, although perhaps not impossible, that she would have had a child at that age.
     (C) In 1844, Sarah married Robert Morley and, in the 1851 Census record for Robert and Sarah, there are also entries for Betsy Morley (age 13) and Maria Morley (age 2), shown as the daughters of Robert Morley. However, Betsy is the same age as Elizabeth Jnr and, of course, Betsy is a common diminutive of Elizabeth. It seems unlikely that Robert Morley was Betsy's father as he would have been about 18 when she was born and Robert and Sarah did not marry until Elizabeth/Betsy was aged 6 or 7. It seems more likely that Elizabeth Jnr was brought into the marriage by Sarah, was adopted by (or at least took the name of) Sarah's husband and was known by the nickname Betsy at that time. Although there are quite a few other Elizabeth/Ann Battens of about that age in the 1851 Census, none of them seems likely to be Elizabeth Jnr.
     (D) In most of the Birth Certificates for Elizabeth Jnr's children, the mother's maiden surname is given as Batten. However, the 1862 Birth Certificate for Frances Sarah shows the mother's maiden name as Morley, which again suggests that Elizabeth Jnr had used the surname Morley at some stage.
     A third (very unlikely) possibility was that Elizabeth Jnr was the daughter of an incestuous relationship between Joseph Batten and Joseph's daughter Sarah. In that case, Joseph would have been both the father and grandfather of Elizabeth Jnr. [16 Oct 2011]
     The death certificate for Sarah Morley shows Elizabeth Rumens as the Informant. This does not seem to provide an indication one way or the other -- Elizabeth was either Sarah's daughter or only sister, and could have been the informant in either capacity. [22 Nov 2013]
     To reflect what I believe was the probable situation, I have included in Relation tags for appropriate family members the assumed relationship according to these records and also the probable alternative to show what might have been the real situation. [3 May 2014]

     A third (very unlikely) possibility was that Elizabeth Jnr was the daughter of an incestuous relationship between Joseph Batten and Joseph's daughter Sarah. In that case, Joseph would have been both the father and grandfather of Elizabeth Jnr. [16 Oct 2011]
     The death certificate for Sarah Morley shows Elizabeth Rumens as the Informant. This does not seem to provide an indication one way or the other -- Elizabeth was either Sarah's daughter or only sister, and could have been the informant in either capacity. [22 Nov 2013]
     To reflect what I believe was the probable situation, I have included in Relation tags for appropriate family members the assumed relationship according to these records and also the probable alternative to show what might have been the real situation. [3 May 2014]

(Witness) Note

Ann Elizabeth (Elizabeth) Batten;      Elizabeth Batten was probably born in 1836 or 1837 before the civil registration of births commenced. No baptismal record has been found for her.
     In these records, it has been assumed that Elizabeth was the daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth Batten (nee Bedwold) because:
     (a) that appears to have been the view through later generations of the family and that's how it has been recorded by the family and by other researchers;
     (b) that would be the normal inference from the 1841 Census record, although relationships are not stated explicitly in that Census; and
     (c) Elizabeth's 1857 Marriage Certificate (to Charles Rumens) shows her father as Joseph Batten, Carpenter.
     (d) Elizabeth's 1906 Marriage Certificate (to Alfred Green) also shows her father as Joseph Batten, Carpenter.
     However, another (more likely) possibility is that she was the illegitimate daughter of Sarah Batten and an unknown father and was, at least initially, brought up as the child of her grandparents Joseph and Elizabeth Snr. Factors supporting this are:
     (A) In the 1841 Census, Sarah (age 25) is, unusually, listed after her younger brothers and she is followed immediately by Elizabeth (age 4), suggesting the possibility of a mother/daughter relationship.
     (B) Also in the 1841 Census, Elizabeth Snr was shown as age 50, so that she would have been about 47 when Elizabeth Jnr was born -- it is very unlikely, although perhaps not impossible, that she would have had a child at that age.
     (C) In 1844, Sarah married Robert Morley and, in the 1851 Census record for Robert and Sarah, there are also entries for Betsy Morley (age 13) and Maria Morley (age 2), shown as the daughters of Robert Morley. However, Betsy is the same age as Elizabeth Jnr and, of course, Betsy is a common diminutive of Elizabeth. It seems unlikely that Robert Morley was Betsy's father as he would have been about 18 when she was born and Robert and Sarah did not marry until Elizabeth/Betsy was aged 6 or 7. It seems more likely that Elizabeth Jnr was brought into the marriage by Sarah, was adopted by (or at least took the name of) Sarah's husband and was known by the nickname Betsy at that time. Although there are quite a few other Elizabeth/Ann Battens of about that age in the 1851 Census, none of them seems likely to be Elizabeth Jnr.
     (D) In most of the Birth Certificates for Elizabeth Jnr's children, the mother's maiden surname is given as Batten. However, the 1862 Birth Certificate for Frances Sarah shows the mother's maiden name as Morley, which again suggests that Elizabeth Jnr had used the surname Morley at some stage.
     A third (very unlikely) possibility was that Elizabeth Jnr was the daughter of an incestuous relationship between Joseph Batten and Joseph's daughter Sarah. In that case, Joseph would have been both the father and grandfather of Elizabeth Jnr. [16 Oct 2011]
     The death certificate for Sarah Morley shows Elizabeth Rumens as the Informant. This does not seem to provide an indication one way or the other -- Elizabeth was either Sarah's daughter or only sister, and could have been the informant in either capacity. [22 Nov 2013]
