Help with Ancestry 1891 census record

[rjb1984]

Hi,

I'm trying to find Mary Ann Lavers b 1811 in Holbeton, Devon

I've got her from 1841-1881 but Ancestry won't find her in the 1891 census.

I've got her in Familysearch -
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/W4YQ-56Z

But no joy in Ancestry. Is anyone able to assist me in finding it?

Thanks,

Rich

This is the reference  RG number: RG12 Piece: 1739 Folio: 99 Page: 2   

Ancestry have her date of birth as 1824 if you put it as that she comes up.

Thanks guys. I should have checked the age. I won't discount her completely but it seems unlikely now.

You need to see if there is another Mary Ann Lavers born Holbeton in previous censuses, if not it could just be a mistake with her age when the census was written up. It isn't a transcription error as it is very clear on the original image.
