Apart from that don´t think I can help anymore. Have done all sort of searches on 1901 but can´t see them anywhere.

Do you know that there are people on GR researching the following: Mary Ann Reading b 1867 Chesham and George Alfred Elford, b Boldre (which is the one Glitter Baby found on the 1871 census) Might be worth contacting them

Do you know when George/Alfred Elford died - is there any chance that Mary Ann could have remarried between the 1891 and 1901 census?

Elaine Report 15 Apr 2006 10:29

just for reference is this the parents on 1891 George Elford abt 1877 Lymington, Hampshire, England Head Chesham Buckinghamshire Mary Ann Elford abt 1877 Chesham, Buckinghamshire, England Wife Chesham Buckinghamshire image state ages to be 24 - therefore both born c1867
