____________________
I put in a search for all of the 1841, 1851 and 1861 censuses to find any possible child, that is a person with a surname of isted and born in 1842 plus or minus 10 years. this resulted in 362 people.
reducing the are to Northants gave zero people.
It would take a very long time to pursue all this. But it’s a thought.
Currently I only have the Burke’s statement that she dsp.
But no baptisms can be found from 1831 to 1851 with the surname of Isted and the parents’ names of Ambroase and Eleanor. So that confirms Burke quite a bit.
