    Anyone remember how it went (the question not the answer)?
    It was something like 2,5 and 6 were the same. 1 came from 4. What was 3?

    It was to quote,


    If 1, 5 and 6 share the same name what did 3 call her 6th.


    The answer will follow

    Is it to do with Henry the 8th? I think 3 of his wives had the name Catherine?
    Is it Elizabeth?

    Ok just to make this clear.

    A woman has 8 children.

    1, 5 and 6 have the same name.

    What you want to know is what did her 3rd child call its 6th child?

    Edward is the answer.... you had the question a little messed up elmo. It is as i wrote it in my OP

    If 1, 5 and 6 share the same name what did 3 call her 6th.

    Henry VIII's 1st, 5th, and 6th wife were called Catherine/Kathrine his 3rd wife Jane Seymour had a son called Edward (the 6th).
