I'd say pretty well definitely Alice Katie Squires. If there's no Alice in your Mum's book, she must not have been close to your Mum - or else she had already gone before your Mum began her own book. (Did your Mum also record deceased family though? that would give a clue...)

There has to be royalty somewhere!

I tend to think she is Alice Katie ...i am sure the "H" would have been more defined if it was Hattie ...
Are there any other capital 'H' in her book?
good one Hepburn ....

Where was Florance in 1891 .... I forget!

I think both my mothers and grandmothers books were to note down birthdays ... any other notes were extra. There are one or two deaths noted too ... but it would seem to be mostly birthdays on the relevant date, and sometimes the year.
Alice Katie is not in mothers book. I had wondered about Hattie as there is a strong thread of dyslexia (had to type that three times !) running through the genrations in the women in our family.
I suspect Baby Don was someone Florence had been minding ... oh ! Just had a thought ... I think Florenec is missing from one of the censuses pre her marriage in 1904 ... I'll check ... she might have been with a family with a baby Don ...

Yes ... she's missing on the 1891 census !
I wonder ... she'd be (quick counting on fingers) 1891 - 1879 = 12 years old ...
The birthday book must have been a birthday present of her 15th birthday from Baby Don !

Someone said it's Chocolate Week........

That could well be her.....the places of birth seem to change slightly nearly every census as did the place of residence.

I think the moving a few miles between each census could well be accounted for by the ag.lab life-style ... tied cottages go with the job; no job ... have to move somewhere else !
I have maps for Dorset and Hampshire, and all these places are probably only half an hour or less (by car) apart ...
