GEDCOM Note

Her maiden name is Halstead and her first name is Jennet which is verifiable by the many sources available in this very record. Her father is John Lawrence Halstead which is also included in this very record. Her middle name was NOT Towneley which is why I deleted that from her name. She is a 10th great grandmother of mine.
