She's a neice? So probably the child of the Head Charles's sibling?

thanks Wayne/Tracey
i can't find her either, only one for ellen rebecca catten born richmond surrey 1874, i think there must be a mistake with bedfordshire

Ali

Ali Report 1 May 2008 15:47

please could someone try the 1871 census for me to c if there is a catten family in bedforshire

WayneTracey

WayneTracey Report 1 May 2008 15:52

I don't think there is an error....

She's listed as a Niece, and with the same surname means she has to be a child of Charles's male sibling.

You need to now go and check all of Charles's siblings and see where they settled and what family they had.

Checking the 1871 for Cattin (e) family in Bedfordshire might not show anything, they could well have been in the right county in 1871 and move and had children between the census's...

thanks Tracey
i think she is william's daughter one of charles siblings but they were all born in richmond, that is what is confusing me at the moment

WayneTracey Report 1 May 2008 15:58

Interestingly... there is this

Births Mar 1874

Catten Ellen Rebecca Richmond S 2a 330

F and R are similar on the forms.... maybe her uncle thought she was born where his brother had moved to?

If you goto FreeBMD.org.uk and then enter the Catten surname only and filter by Richmond Sry (to March 1834), you will have all the family events for your family..
