Hi In 1901 there is a Mary Ann aged 77 widow born Yaxley resident in the Hunts Workhouse.
Her surname has been transcribed as Shotton.Has anyone got a resource which would tell me whether this is actually Mary Ann Swinton baptised 1823 Connington?
I know she was alive in the 1891 census in Northants, cannot find a death 1891 -1901 but if this entry is an error there may be death after 1901. Would any records of admission/departure/ Creed still exist? Very grateful for any leads. Marlene

Hi Marlene
I would have transcribed it as STRATTON!
And whether it's coincidence further up the same page there's also a John Stratton, correctly transcribed, single 75 ag lab also b Yaxley.
It might be easier to prove that it's Stratton rather than it should be Swinton
Just looked at 1891
In Huntingdon there was Mary A Stratton h wid 63 b Yaxley John Stratton boarder single 61 ag lab b Yaxley
Even though the ages are a bit adrift I don't think she's your Mary Ann Swinton
Regards
David
