Commentary

Preliminary research shows the GRO Index has Birth Registrations for

• Annis RAWLINGS registered during 1q1849 in the Risbridge Reg.Dist with mother's maiden name of DEARSLEY
• Albert John RAWLINGS registered during the 4q1850 again in Risbridge Reg.Dist. with Mother's Maiden Name of DEARKEY (sic)

FreeBMD shows a marriage during 3q1848 in the Cambridge Reg.Dist. between Dinah REEVE and John RAWLINGS.

FamilySearch has a marriage between Dinah DENSLEY (sic) and Charles REEVE at Great Thurlow, Suffolk in October 1832.

Dinah and Elizabeth Reeve are living together on Thurlow Street in Great Thurlow on the 1841 census. (HO107, Piece 1033, Book 8, Folio 11 reverse, Page 12). They are the second household in the dwelling occupied by John and Elizabeth Dearsley

The above would tend to suggest Elizabeth Reeve was Dinah's daughter from her first marriage and John Rawlings' step-daughter.
