There's a few Emily Burchett deaths registered in Kent. Thought if you knew when she'd died we could have got birth year from that.

Julie Report 20 Mar 2011 17:32

she did stay as a a Burchett as mu Auntie knew Emily and Freds daughter but no one can work out the family connection ???? that generation is so much older and they don't like talking about it when there's illegitimate babies involved allthough my Auntie is in her 80's and wants to know

oohh patchem That fits cos I know that Rosa's daughter Elizabeth married Mundalus Chapman. So I wonder who Emily's mum is???if she's listed as step sister, she must have been a Bowles not a Moore
, could she have been Stephen's grand daughter mayber???

Mike what does that mean???? living as juvelnile aged 8 years but where

The Emily Bowles, born Tunbridge Wells is probably this one in 1901

Emily J Bowles- 10 - born Kent Chatham- residing Kent Chatham -Juvenile

Julie - do you have any idea as to when and where she died (presuming she remained as a Burchett)?

Mike * Report 20 Mar 2011 17:24

So your DOB for Emily is based on finding a birth in the name of Bowles ?

But she wouldn't have been Bowles - not then anyway - not if Rosa was her mother.

Think you need to start from what you know.
Get her marriage cert, work out her age, see who she names as her father ( maybe step-father) and THEN find the correct birth which will tell you if Rosa was her mother.

What makes you think she was born 1890 ?

Her age should be on her marriage certificate.

Did she have a middle name ?
Could this be her ?

Maddie thanks for that but I allready have it that's what's confusing me Where is Emily, not on 1901 census or 1911. I know she was around as my Aunt can remember my grandad talking about her and calling her Auntie Em
