Clara Goatham DAW, [G-K]
Set As Default Person -
Name Clara Goatham DAW Suffix [ONS gp] [G-K] Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born 14 Sep 1867 Marden, Kent, England
- GRO ref: Daw, Clara q4 1867 Maidstone RD 2a 542; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Hartnup
Place from censuses, date and place from birth registration (image of GRO register entry)
Gender Female Middle name relationship After Michael GOATHAM, her uncle (by marrigae) and substitute father? - When Clara was born her name was registered simply as Clara DAW. However, when she was two her mother gave birth to Clara's sister. Sadly neither mother nor baby survived, and Clara then appears to have been brought up by her mother's sister, Sarah and Sarah's husband Michael Goatham.
By the time she married Clara was using the middle name Goatham, presumably respecting the uncle and aunt who had brought her up, though she correctly named her father as Henry Daw, not Michael Goatham who could be considered her foster-father.
