Hi
I wonder if anyone with more experience might offer some advice? I have been searching for a birth from Emma Sophia Gibson in aprox. 1863 in Islington. On her marriage certificate her father is listed as George Gibson and her birthplace Islington.
I have found her as a married adult on the 1901 census (as Emma Shrubsole)...her birthplace is given as Islington. I have found an Emma Gibson aged 7 on the 1871 census with a grandfather George Gibson
see below
Edward Gibson 1 Deptford, Kent, England Grandson St Paul Deptford London
Elizabeth Gibson 66 London, Middlesex, England Wife St Paul Deptford London
Elizabeth S Gibson 34 St Luke, Middlesex, England Daughter St Paul Deptford London
Emma Gibson 7 Islington, Middlesex, England Granddaughter St Paul Deptford London
George Gibson 61 Charlton, Kent, England Head St Paul Deptford London
Mary A Gibson 9 Islington, Middlesex, England Granddaughter St Paul Deptford London
Robert Marlin 20 London, Middlesex, England Brother St Paul Deptford London
I feel this is almost certainly my Emma..BUT my problem is I cannot find a birth registration. There is nothing on the GRO Index and I have paid them to do a search that was fruitless.
Can anyone suggest what I might do next to establish a birth?
With Much Appreciation
Robyn

Find me in the Yellow Pages.

Suggestion Locate George Snr in 1861 (try 1871 address) and use the 1851 name index to find him earlier.
This should indicate if he had a son George, and whether that son was around in 1861. If not, look for him with Elizabeth in Islington.
I have assumed that Elizabeth S is a widow?
