Hello Am trying with NO success at all so far, to find Emily as shown below in the 1901 Census as the wife of Henry William Rance of Pimlico but in the 1891 she is shown as Annie, I think they are the same person. I found a marriage between a Henry William Rance and Annie W E Godbold in the Dec. Qtr 1890 in St George Hanover Square - It hink this must be them but cannot find Annie/Emily Godbold born Pimlico c1873 on the 1881 census. Your help/thoughts much appreciated.

Thankyou Jim and Victor for looking into this for me. Yes I think that birth is the right one and just had a look on freebmd and think her parents were a James Godbold and Ann Polmere who married in St Geo Hanover in 1872. Your help is much appreciated. Danielle

I am with Elizabeth on this one, the enumerator's handwriting is easily misread as Goolbold. James, the Head of the house, was a Furniture Maker, if that helps confirm it.

Hi Danielle

I know your last post was a long time ago, but Cecil Rance was my Grandfather!
If you need any further information please let me know, would love to know what part of the family you are from!
Regards
Sam

Sam - you'ld likely do better sending a personal message to Dan - just click on her name in a post's heading. GR will send an email saying she's got a message, which will likely work better than hoping she'll recheck her thread, assuming GR has her current email addy.
