Hi I have been trying to find a Lucy Parkins 1854 and her daughter Mary Elizabeth,1872, who was born outside marriage, on the 1881 and 1891 census but with no luck, both born Cambridgeshire. I have looked for marriages for Lucy between 1872 and 1881 but haven't been able to find one. I did find a marriage for Mary Elizabeth in 1893 to a William Clark and found her on the 1901 census so where was she on the previous two and what happened to her mother. I did look at deaths thinking she may have died in childbirth but hit a blank there. Any help would be gratefully appreciated. Many Thanks Dannie
