    1. Re: [LEI] What happened to SELINA BRADSHAW ?
    2. Derek
    3. Hi Paul, Thank you for your response. I have been helping Gail Durst with her BRADSHAW research for nearly 7 years and have exhausted my ideas for trying to find deaths etc. for Selina or William, so I thought I would look to the combined knowledge of the List for any other avenues to follow. Incidentally, the postings on the websites you give are both from Gail Durst. Unfortunately the 1911 census that you quote is not Selina's daughter - it is for Annie Maria daughter of Deborah Bradshaw, born June Qtr 1901. It is possible that Selina's daughter, Annie, is listed under a different surname on the 1911 census, as a School Exemption Register for July 1914 gives her guardian as Mrs Eliza Pawley, parents not known.

HI Derek, Presumably you are aware of Gail Durst who was posting in 2006 and 2009 about this mystery. Another person brought to Gail's attention another daughter Annie, who was living with Selina in Leicester in 1901 and with Deborah Alice MOLLETT (nee BRADSHAW) in Blaby in 1911. If you go here: http://www.thisisleicestershire.co.uk/Family-research/story-12899005-detail/story.html you will find Gail's post and her email address. Also, someone posting here: http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,498555.msg3553357.html claims to have information for all 9 of William and Selina's children. Hope that helps.
