Hi Heather, I had a look at the 1891 census (actual page) and the index transcription is quite wrong. Here is how I read it. Buxted Sussex "The Home - St. Margaret's" Horwood, Frances Anne, age 36, Sister, occupation: Religious nun, born Oxfordshire, Neithorpe (probably Neithrop which is part of Banbury?) I can send you the a JPG of the census image, if you'd like. Regards, Brenda Anderson Masterton, New Zealand.
