Martha Bowsher - 1871 census *completed*
« on: Friday 16 October 09 18:23 UTC (UK) »
I am trying to figure out what happened to Martha Bowsher (born around 1849 in Eastbury, Berkshire), the eldest child of my g-g grandparents.  She appears with the family in the 1851 and 1861 censuses, but she is not there in 1871.  Searching the Free BMD site I have found a possible marriage entry as well as a possible death entry, but both of those are from later in the 1870's.
Thank you so much for your help.

Thank you very much, Tati.  I suspected that might be a servant somewhere.
