Notes |
- There doesn't seem to be any record of Pauline's parents. John Means b 1814 is really the only candidate to be her father from what records are readily available.
Because of the closeness over the years of the families of Pauline and Celestine, and the closeness of their ages, it seems a pretty safe bet they were sisters. However the young age of Elmira, John's wife, it's really not possible that she s Pauline's mother and a squeeze to say she was Celestine's mother. So, we have to assume that John had these girls with a wife #1, who might have even died in childbirth with Celestine - or who knows - and he subsequently remarried in a year or two.
All this is pure speculation though. And short of finding wills or something, there doesn't seem to be a way to know for sure. But the closeness of these families, I think this is best guess.
