Hello everyone ,

Could someone please look for a Mary Gertrude Clark b 1890 Tipton Bilston in the 1911 census.

I have all other census bar this one !

she was last seen single on 1901 with her widowed mother Sarah Clark,( father James Clark) running a pub called crickerters arms Inn IN Church st Bilston.

Her brother William was living with thier fathers sister mary Clark Oxford st Bilston in 1901.

Her mother remarried name Kirk and in 1911. William , Mary Gertrude .brother is living with thier mother who still is a vituella. William is a confectioner . but no Mary G .?

Mary Gertrude Clark married a Thomas Bunce in 1922 so i know she did not die she was also a witness on mary clarks death cert(thier aunt)
I checked her aunt in 1911 but she is not with her.

hope someone can help, thanking you in advance

Just wandering if some one could check the actual record for the

COSELEY one, in 1911 that has MAry gertrude clark i know it says Coseley
but i cannot see whether she is a daughter or visiter /servant ? as i cannot view inside. only coseley is so close to tipton Bilston.

If she is servant or visiter then it could be her.

hope you do not mind me asking. Flo
