I've at long last come to the conclusion that this great-aunt of mine cannot be found unless anyone else has a brighter idea. Her name is Ada Georgina Moth born on 4 Jun 1871 in Gosport, one of 12 children. She was the first born daughter of James Moth and Georgina Emily Mary Hobbs who were married on 18 May 1871 in the Registers Office, Portsmouth, Hampshire, obviously with some urgency! I've found her as a scholar on the 1881 census living at 34 Ivy St, Portsea and again on the 1891 census as a housemaid age 20 living at 4 Lynchford Terrace off Waverley Road, Southsea. Then NOTHING! I've tried, marriages, deaths, immigration so I can only think it must be a transcription error. If anyone can help I would be eternally grateful as I'm writing a book about the Moth family (my grandfather's line) and her chapter is going to be exceedingly short!
