Notes
General:
150705: 1886, Hearts Delight, Bishop, Jacob and Jane, Mary Eliza, F.P.B. (lay reader, received by C.E. Smith), April 13, 1886, C of E, Fisherman, DOB not recorded

This birth was a surprise to mom when I told her about it. She had never heard of this person. In all liklihood the child died shortly after birth.

111211: On rethinking this now I am wondering if I made a mistake based upon a poorly transcribed birth record (I have not seen the original myself). Though the transcriber, Dave Short, took down her name from the NGB website as Mary Eliza, Jennifer Bishop has her listed as Martha Elizabeth. I am thinking now that this may be the elderly lady named Martha who always accompanied Nan (Sarah Minnie Bishop Wheeler) to family gatherings. I never understood her relationship to the family and may have accidentally ascribed her to the Chislett rather than the Bishop side of the family. This needs further research.

270313: I still don't know the facts in this matter but I do know that Martha was a Chislett. She was the daughter of Jane's brother Willis and married a man named Rose in NB but was soon widowed and returned home. She was always known as Martha Rose but I had assumed the Rose was a middle name. Therefore there is no confusion as to this person being Martha.

230224:
Just noticed the annotation on the Vital Record of this child's birth/baptism. It shows no date of birth and where the name of the Minister should appear it shows "F.P.B". There is one other notation on this page of the same nature. I think that it means "Family Private Baptism" and if so that would suggest the child died at birth or shortly thereafter.

Notes
General:
Sept. 2, 2009: It isn't certain that this is a sister of Jacob Bishop but it seems likely due to the coincidence in time, place and both common surnames and Christian names in the family.
