• Notes

  In 1901 census has 2 grandsons living with her, David and William. There is no indication as to who their parents are. Most likely candidates are her sons John and William. At the moment (16/10/2011) we have no definite proof that her father was Aaron Swaebe. However, in the 1881 census her son, David Jenkins Swaebe, was living with his uncle, David Swaebe who is the son of Aaron. Therefore it is reasonably safe to assume that as David Swaebe is his uncle, then his mother must be David's sister, therefore daughter of Aaron.
