no, im sure it was not anne. She could not have breastfed a baby as
she died after teh conclusion of her only succesful pregnancy, (ie
wehn Charlotte was born) so it woudl have been unlikely if not
downright impossbile for her to lactate.

im sure you are thinking of the ep where she left james and moved in
with the wife of the strike leader, Mrs Jessop who had a young baby.
Series 2 ended wiht Ann'es deaht in Chidlbirht adn series 3 ended
with James trying to befreind his daughter Charlotte who was now
meant to be about 9 or 10. (htey later changed hte ages sicne in
later seasons Charlotte had to be close in age to WIllaim Frazer
sicnce she had a romance with him).
