Thanks Jogger.  I'll look at the Wikipedia link.

Thanks joger.  This looks good but the age isn't quite right. I think she was born about 1863.  I can feel a visit to the LMA coming on although I don't think they have the dates I need.  Thanks again.

Thank you - appreciate the advice and think you're both right.  I need more info in order to identify her :(

Thank for checking.  I'm researching her as part of the Horton Asylum project.  There is no information available/her admission record and case notes no longer exist.  I have only what I found on the 1911 census entry - she was single and a milliner.  I knew it was a long shot but I was hoping to find French records.  I have also checked for other people named ALLEMAND on the census but couldn't spot a match.

Thank you garstonite and Zefiro.

I'm looking for information on Eugenie ALLEMAND born c1863.  Died in Horton Asylum in 1911.  That's all I have.  Can't find anything online via Ancestry etc.  I appreciate overseas records are few and far between.

Trying to find someone born in Grenoble, France around 1863.  I've tried Ancestry and Familysearch.  Any other suggestions? 

All I have is her name, approx. year of birth and place of birth.

Thank you everyone.  In answer to the questions:

I am researching the Reuters Roll of Honour which I initially found online.  It simply said "H. Timmins". 

I had a few men I was struggling to identify so I got in touch with Reuters and they sent me a copy of the RoH from their Staff Bulletin/magazine.  The magazine gives each man's Initial, Surname and Regiment so has been a huge help.  As far as Timmins is concerned though it simply says "Cyclist Corps" under Regiment Name. 

I thought with a name like Timmins it would be straightforward especially when I've identified Smiths in the past :) 

The 1911 census hasn't really helped because I can't find a match with a suitable occupation so I'm assuming Timmins was still at school when the census was taken.
