Set As Default Person -
Name Emily TARR Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Mar Q 1860 Dawlish, Devon, England
- Date from 1861 census where shown as aged 1, but 'where born' field was blank and from the 1871 census
GRO ref: TARR, Emily q1 1860 Newton A RD 5b 115; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Gestem
Gender Female Died Bef 1911 - Judging by the number of her mother's children who had died by the time of the 1911 census, Emily was dead by then. However, I have not found her death nor identified her in censuses.
I think she married and then died.

Is Jestin = Justham? - finding this couple in the censuses shows that Grace was the right age and born in Milton Combe, Buckland Monachorum so I'm sure it is.
The 1911 census shows that Grace and John had 13 children, 6 of whom had died by 1911. As 7 have been found in 1911, it must be the others who died.
Alive in 1911: Mary A, John, James F, Tom, Eliza J, Grace, Bessie (7)
Must have died by 1911: the 2 who died as infants (John Henry Jestham and Richard), Wm Henry, Sarah Jane, Emily, Alice (6).
