Hi Mike, It's just possible that she might be a domestic servant in Brixton. Census ref is RG11/614 Brixton District 5a, page 34. Head of household is Walter Maccarthy. She is shown aged 14. Her place of birth is given as Brixton, which could either be because they didn't know & guessed, or because it was written as Bristol and mis-read by the Enumerator. Best wishes, Mike Gould Leicestershire -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike Matthews Sent: 02 August 2012 10:01 To: [email protected] Subject: [B&S] 1881 census help Hello, If anyone fancies a challenge, perhaps they could try looking for William Edward Andrews b 1862 Bristol and his sister Florence Rebecca Andrews b 1868 Bristol in the 1881 census, as I cannot find them. They are alive and well in 1871 and 1891, but no trace of them in 1881. William could've been in the army or at sea, but clearly that doesn't apply to Florence. Their widowed father Edward was visiting the Davis family in Elton Street in 1881. ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
Thanks Mike, I've found the Florence in question. It could be her, but impossible to tell.
