Dragon Street, Petersfield.

Harriett and her daughter Mary Anne are still at home with Harriett's parents.  Harriett marries James Bridger later the same year in October.  At first I thought that Thomas Scrivens may be Mary Anne's natural father, but since Thomas was a witness at Harriett and James's wedding, this is probably unlikely.  James Bridger could be the natural father.
