I am hoping someone might be able to help me with my grandmother and her mother
Frances Louisa Lewis born 29/06/1888 in Union workhouse wotton /within no father Mother Mary elisabeth Lewis a domestic servant of Barton St Mary.
apart form knowing Frances went to India and married a soldier Charles Dowell.
, I can find no trace of her or her mother I am hoping someone might be able to help.
I am hoping to go to the record office sometime to see if they have any workhouse records but if anyone could help I cannot find them on the 1891 census or 1901
thanks anyway sandie

thanks tralee,
I did pick up on that 1901 a while ago but couldnt find anything else, but as you have noticed it as well makes me think there might be something worth looking into.
I did look at Gloucestershire web page and it doesnt look as though the time I want survived either still never know.
I havent been able to find any trace on 1891 either they just vanished. thanks for looking sandie
