Trying to find the above lady's parents, I can find her on the 1851 and 1861 census as Susannah Fletcher. She has a father William and several siblings. On the 1851 census (ref H.O.107/2144 Horsley Woodhouse) mum's name is illegible. William is a widower on 1861 census. Can't find them on the 1841 census at all.
Looking on the GRO index for Susannah and subsequent children, the mother's maiden name is given as OLDKNOW but try as I might I can't find a Fletcher/Oldknow marriage. Fletcher is a fairly common name and even if I search deaths in the Belper area only between 1853 (the date her last child was born) and 1861 without a christian name there are too many to be sure which is her.
I have Susanah's remaining history, she marries and moves to Chesterfield where she dies in 1914. As I said, where do I go from here?
