I have been searching for an evidence of birth of Harriet Thring (born in Bath Somerset around 1840s) for more years than I care to think about! Over the years I have accumulated endless lists of Thrings in Bath for births, baptisms, marriages, deaths, burials and wills, but nothing seems to fit together.
There appears to be no baptism in Bath around that time, so I tried the censuses and it just gets more confusing.
