bullet  General Notes:

There are two theories on her parentage. One is that she is the daughter of a John Rotton, but Billie Jones' theory is that she's the daughter of a William and Lydia Loveless Rotton which seems logical as one of their sons has Loveless as a middle name.

Billie Jones theorizes that the following 1880 census record might apply to this Nancy Rotton, if she was married to a Forster before she married Marmaduke and had a daughter Elizabeth with her first husband.

It looks entirely possible, but if true, she did not die before 1860 as other 2nd hand sources have suggested. 4
