Not found a single Smith with parents of David and Sophia Tried doing an exact search on 1891 census just by putting surname of Smith, female, born 1889 +/- 1 year with father of David. Got 132 results and not one with mother of Sophia. Maureen

Maureen, Thank-you, I don't get it do you? Why would Rosina not be with parent's at such a young age someone at that adress must be a relative do you think?

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 17 Mar 2007 10:29

Maureen, Sorry but what about same adress in 1901, maybe the family had moved in then with Rosina.
