On the 1881 census i have a Roseann (1978) & Mechach (1862) along with their other brothers & sisters and parents William (1831) & elizabeth (1838) William & Elizabeth both died before 1891 census but i cant find Roseann or Mechach on 1891 or 1901 census What happened to them. They lived In Thornton, North Yorkshire Parish - Wilsden. Surname - Driver I would have thought, because Roseann was only between 3 & 10 when her parents died she would live with one of her siblings - but again i have looked at this option, but still to no avail. Can you help Nic |
