It is Sumner. There is no Elsie may Turner born in Southam. So it is definitely the wrong family.

Births Jun 1901 (>99%)
SUMNER Elsie May Southam 6d 736

Many thanks Astra + GlitterBaby.

Only just returned to the thread and yes - you are correct - that is my aunt mistranscribed on 1911 census.

Wasn't sure why i couldn't find her, then found the Turner name on the free-to-search option on the 1911 website...added Fenny Compton (plus new info. that she had a sister called Rosalind) & your kind replies proved that my hunch was right.

Your help is most appreciated !
