1871 Catherine Smith born Waterloo 1848 a servant in Litherland D4 > 3.

On all census returns when married to robert she says 1852 but on 1911 it gives her true age,do you think she was telling porkies to Robert who was 5 years younger.
Catherine Smith born @ 1848 died Ormskirk 1915.

Catherine daughter to Edward Smith Aintree 1817 son of Thomas 1797 and Betty.
Edward married 27/2/1837 in Liverpool to Catherine Kirby daughter of Elizabeth kirby 1771 she is on 1851 census with Edward and Catherine.
