Member Since: May 2003 Posts: 54 Send Message	Can anyone help please I have been trying to find Geneva Allen on the 1911 census. Geneva was born in 1890 in Bushley Worcestershire. In 1911 her family lived in Bradford court, High street Tewkesbury this included her young son of 2 years Cyril b1909 he is listed as living with his grandparents, uncle and aunts. Geneva was unmarried and married in 1912 to Hubert Saunders. I have searched all records including passenger lists from 1908 to 1912. Thankyou for any advice given. Best Wishes Pauline

	Not finding on the 1911 census though. Sometimes if girls were in service they would be given a name by the lady of the house that they would be known by and not the actual name . Maybe she was in service .
