Seh is the daughter of William & Susanna Sheppard. She is living with her parents in Atworth in the 1841 census. In the 1851 census she is shown living with her brother Job Sheppard in Yatton Keynell, Wiltshire. After that I cannot find any record of her. I have found some folks by broadening my geographic area (include everywhere). If she married or went into service, she could have ended up anywhere as many young women that age did. I found my great grandfather in Dorset when no one knew he had been there. Never occurred to me to look there. -- Paul Beard / www.paulbeard.org/ <paulbeard.org> Emo Philips - "I was the kid next door's imaginary friend."

Paul, I have expanded my search beyond Wiltshire but too many certificates. Thought someone might have found her and is willing to share.
