Some time ago, I found a baptism record in West Heslerton, Yorkshire, England for a Judith Hardy. I suspect that this is a sister of Lancelot Hardy as they were both born to an unmarried Hannah Hardy. Oddly, the baptismal record states that she was born on November 25, 1794 but the bishop's transfer states that she was baptized on November 25, 1794. So, either one of them is wrong or both events happened on the same day.
Baptismal Record:
Bishop's Transfer:
Later on, I found evidence of a Judith Hardy who married a John Morse in the US. The year of birth, 1794, matched the Judith born in West Heslerton.
But when I checked the death records for her, it appears that she was born in Groveland, Massachusetts.
So, it's definitely not the same one. Now the question is, what happened to the Judith Hardy born in West Heslerton?
