Find Ancestors

Hi Jaquie, I might send for it eventually, I'm too engrossed in finding out about one of my dads supposed great aunts. her name was Lillian Sarah Noble, can't find her anywhere on this planet, I know she existed because I actualy remember her. She was suposed to have been born in Lancashire in 1885, her parents names are meant to be Thomas Noble b in bramham yorks and Hannah Noble b whitchurch shropshire. But! I have the family listed on the 1901 census as their 1st child being Elizabeth b 1888 in eccles. One of their children is called Hannah b 1889 and the family tree my dad has written there is an Annie and not a Hannah, I assume this is the same person as the name is so similar. A family mystery maybe, possibly even a relatives child. :) I've been waiting for a family scandal hahaha Johnathon, thanks for having a look for me :) Sarah, the bevvie sounds a good possibility haha :) Maria

Hi Maria, Have just looked at the 1881 image and there is nothing written in the relationship column at all for Edith so guess the transcriber had to put 'other' rather than leave a blank. There is another child further down the page with a blank in that colum - perhaps the enumerator was getting tired by the time he wrote that page up :-)

hi Maria The address is 6, Caroline Street, Salford on the census there is also 2 other men (unrelated visitors) at that address that night. Probably popped in for a bevvie after work!!!!!!!!! Cheers Sarah

You ould always get her birth certificate to see who she originally belonged to. Jacquie

Would you possibly have their full address? Thanks loads S. Morrelle Maria :)

Yes! thats them! maybe the person collecting their details couldnt tell if it was a girl or a boy, although I've never heard of a boy called Edith :)

You beat me!!! Well done!

where were they born plz?? any areas??

Hi Maria This must be your Noble family, Edith is now a daughter!! Noble, Edith 12 Salford, Lancashire Daughter Broughton Lancashire Noble, Elizabeth 32 Wellington, Shropshire Wife Broughton Lancashire Noble, William D 34 Wellington, Shropshire Head Broughton Lancashire

HAHAHA thanks :)

looking for you now!

Hi Rebecca, I never thought of that hahaha doh! alas I don't have anyway of looking on the 1891 census, could someone have a look for me please ? Maria :)

Have you tried looking for her on the 1891 to see what she is on there? Rebecca.

cousin? niece?

Could it be niece, nephew?

has anyone any idea why, in a census record a child would be registered as other instead of son or daughter? I have 1881 census, William David Noble, head, m, age 24, Lizzie Noble,wife, m, age 23 and Edith Noble, other (not son or daughter) aged 1 year. Do you think this child could be adopted?
