[TI] Naming

[Laura Johnson]

Tom

I see 4 possible scenarios or combination of them could be possible:

1.  There was a child born BEFORE the marriage in 1844.  There are  many 
documents in 1842 that were not filmed by the LDS when the filming was done.
2.  There are large enough gaps between the first 3 children that there 
is a good possibility of a child being born between each of them and 
that the document was not recorded or missed in the filming
3.  I would check the Palermo births for the years of 1845 thru 1849 to 
see if you can find daughters with those names.
4.  IF someone very important to the family died recently, the first 
daughter could have been named after that person
