Would some one please give me a clue, as to what a person called Augusta, might go by?

I have Augusta Hughes 15, living at  102 Rishton Street, Everton
on the 1901 census. But I can't find her in any other . She would have been born circa 1886.

Her father was William Hughes, book keeper, and her mum, was
Isabella Hughes, Nee Dagwell.

She was certainly not at home in 1891 census, Mum was a widow, now Bella Hughes, living at Albion Street Everton.

Any thoughts, most gratefully received

Kind thoughts

Could be Gussy.  I have a male cousin named Agustus and that's what we call him.  It would fit for a girl too.  I doubt if she'd Allow anyone to call her Auggie.  But maybe Aggie.

I would agree with that - either Gussy or Aggie.
