And what does that make us to each other?!

We have a similar relationship, i.e. 4th half-cousins once removed and 5th full cousins once removed. My last post was inaccurate as I said TWICE removed instead of ONCE in respect of your 5th cousinship.

Of course, it is possible that Gervase WAS the biological father of Hannah Slack, and subsequently made an honest woman of Ellen after she gave birth to Hannah.

Gervase's granddaughter Sarah b. 1831 married Joseph Bacon b.1827.

We are in contact through G.R., a look at Anna's tree will give you all the Bacon bits.

Hi Jenks,

There may be a connection with my Bacons and the Pentrich Revolution, but the generation of Bacons prior to my 'married- in', Joseph Bacon b.1827 (including his father) were from South Normanton.

There is a link with Pentrich and the Bacons however, in that Joseph married Sarah Pepperday who was baptised at the non-conformist chapel at Pentrich, as was her grandfather Joseph Slack, whose family de-camped en masse from Heanor and Codnor to be baptised there.

I will look further into a possible connection when time permits
