I can't see her on 1871..........

You may need to obtain her marriage cert............she may not have been a spinster when she married.

1901 so who is this staying with the family could sound the same as Curle

Bev Report 3 Nov 2008 15:26

yes glitter

i have seen that, i have the marriage details from Freebmd, but am wondering if there is a mistranscription here

plus i know the name Keirle sic is prominent in the area, i have not seen it spelt curle

how reliable is the spelling on freebmd, or in that case the BMD regs?

david

that would fit, right age, right area.

i wonder what the spelling is on the actual cert

my gut tells me this should be kierle

can you source info as 'gut feeling' lol

The spelling on the cert would be the same as on the GRO index - unless somebody has made a C look like a K on the cert.

Probably mishead rather than mistranscribed on the marriage cert.

Bev

Bev Report 3 Nov 2008 15:40

yes david

that is what i was thinking i mean if you heard curl you would spelt it curl not kierle

kierle is a prominent name in north petherton and the surrounding villages even now and this is the area we are looking at

i can find no curles (sic) anywhere near

so i think it has to be a mistranscription

but like i said will order my gt grans birth cert and hopefully that will clarify

Bev Report 3 Nov 2008 15:48

ohhh

thankyou david

Potty Report 3 Nov 2008 15:53

Looks like you will have to buy her marriage cert and the birth cert to compare father's names.

If you think Keirle/Kirle/Curle are bad, what about Postans transcribed as Bertani!

Bev

Bev Report 3 Nov 2008 15:56

ok

i have emailed my dads cousin to see if she knows any names of dorothys parents/siblings to make sure i am on right track here before i order the certs

(i got 3 certs on the way)
