jemima eager 1885 oct-nov-dec lewes east sussex volume 2b any help please mothers maiden name.....

thanks kath according to her grand daughter her parents were james eager and ansley lower from newhaven sussex who i have on 1891 but she isn,t on there bit strange .....

I can only find her in the 1901 census when she is a servant who is not living with parents. I can't find her in 1891 at all. If you could find her in 1891 and get her parents first names, then you could look for a marriage, by looking under her father's name. I think you may have to buy the certificate to get her mother's maiden name. Kath. x

Gary, this is from the BVRI discs. Could it be her? Jemmima Eager christened 8 Nov.1885, Newhaven, Sussex. Parents James Eager and Ausley. Margaret

hi margaret yes thats her thankyou very much what are bvri discs......GARY......

They're British Vital Records Index, a set of 16 cd's covering BMD's, usually those that aren't covered on Familysearch although there is some overlap. They're purchased through the Familysearch site. There are more christenings of siblings of Jemima, give me a minute to type them out. Margaret
