NOTE Mrs P's record & index records Jane incorrectly as Anne Hoskin. Jane was born in Islington to Asher Jones who was for many years the Weigher & Teller at the Royal Mint. He was eventually superannuated as he was also doing another job at the Post Office and was sometimes absent from the Mint. Googling his name gives access to Historical docs and a history of the Royal Mint. Frances died a spinster & fundholder at 1 Old Rectory, Northbrook St, Newbury. Source: Ancestry records.
