The Reverend Augustus James Tharp and Juliet Bond
When I saw that there were DNA matches with Alfred and Georgianna's ancestors on both sides, that seemed to be confirmation that they were direct ancestors to the mysterious grandmother, Christine Cambridge . The degrees of match would help determine how many generations there were between them, but she definitely had DNA from both of their birth families. How else could that be explained? It was a shock to my certainties when I realised that because Alfred's sister (Juliet Bond) had married Georgianna's uncle (Augustus James Tharp), that couple's children also had Bond and Tharp ancestors and therefore had DNA from both sides. Three of their children could theoretically have been one of Christine's parents: Theodore Augustus Tharp (b. 1844), Arthur Keane Tharp (b. 1849) and Juliet Louisa Tharp (b. 1847). Another brother had died in infancy and the remaining sister, Agnes Laura Tharp (b. 1851), married in September 1881, making her an unlikely mother for Christine
