February 2nd, 1800 and Mary Gosling’s birth was recorded in the diary of Eliza Chute (her mother’s “sister of the heart,” in other words her BFF). So happy 209th birthday Mary! Being a fellow Aquarian, I feel sure I understand her a little better than others might…
Emma Smith and Mary Gosling are the two teens in question. Mary was born 2 February 1800 and Emma 27 September 1801. Sisters-of-the-heart, they became sisters-in-law in 1826.
