In the 1881 Census, St. Cuthberts,my husband's gg grandparents, John and Mary Miller are living at #8 Long Close. With them is their widowed daughter, Jane Widham, age 22. We can't find a marriage or death. Could someone please suggest alternate spellings for the name Widham? Regards, Virginia

Hi Virgina, I don't know if others have already answered but drawing from the list of soundex equivalents below (which I borrowed from the transcription site of the Canadian census at automatedgenealogy.com), I'd try the following first: Witham Whiden Whiddon Whittan Whitten Whittom Whittome Wheddon, Whedon, Wheeden, Wheedon Wheeten Wheten Widam Whitthen Whittim Whittin.
