• Notes

  Parents: Several Ancestor.com family trees have her last name as "Darling" and her parents as Denis and Hannah (Francis) Darling. One has her as being adopted by John Darling with a birth surname as "Barney". I can find no proof of any of this, and every source I check gives her maiden name as unknown.
