Hi, Please could anyone help me find any records of my Grandmother, Annie Elizabeth Ellis. She was born c.1879-1882 in Norfolk, possibly North Walsham. Her father's name was James Ellis. I can find no record of her on the 1881 or 1901 Census. Would be most grateful for any help at all. Thanks Vivien |

Thanks everso much Jill. I am going on what my Dad told me. She died in 1924, so his facts may not be correct. I have her marriage cert and her death cert, but can't find any trace of her birth. Thanks again. Vivien |

Vivien happy to help if i can just seems strange you cant find her on any census. I will keep looking if i find anything else will get back to you. where did she get married? do you know if she had brothers/sisters? Jill The other thing im thinking is could she have been called Hannah my gt gt nan changed her name so much from Ann to Annie and Hannah, even got her as Betsey on her sons birth certificate. |
