I am trying to find information on my great great grandmother, Annie Dobson.

She was born in Bradford on Avon in 1875 to Reuben and Sarah Dobson (nee Derrett) and is listed in the 1901 cenus as working as a domestic servant at 1 Devonshire Buildings (Sydney House) in Bath.

In 1893 she gave birth to an illegitimate daughter, Edith, who was raised by Reuben and Sarah as their own.

Annie had 6 siblings, John b.1867, Martha b.1871, Reuben born and died 1875, Rose b.1876, Bertha b.1879 and Job b.1881 and they all lived on the Frome Road in Bradford on Avon, where Sarah ran the towns weighbridge.

Any info you could give me would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Sarah.
