I'm not sure how I got this idea in my head, but I feel fairly sure that I read somewhere that Rosetta Walls (nee Vidler) had been married to a man who left her to go to Canada. Has anyone else seen this somewhere? I'd like to find the source for it. I'm quite interested in learning more about Rosetta and the Vidler family who lived next door to Polly and who eventually remarried William Nichols after Polly's death.
I've checked records and it seems that Rosetta's married name has been written Wolls and Wools as well as Walls. Also, when Polly and William's last child was finally baptized (at the same time as Rosetta and William's first child, I might add) Rosetta was acknowledged as the mother of both of the children. Talk about rubbing salt into a wound.
