I've been attempting to find background on my great-grandmother, Fanny Rothwell, who married Henry Jepson in Bombay India. With a great deal of assistance from a fellow Rootschatter, I'm now thinking that her name wasn't Fanny Rothwell at all, but could have been Fanny/Frances Seddon. I have a birthdate for her of 10 March 1860 and a Fanny Seddon, 10 months old, appears in the 1861 census living with her grandparents, Thomas and Emma Seddon, Barnsley, Yorkshire. In the next census, she's living with Edward and Ann Seddon in Silkstone as daughter. After that, she disappears.
I've been thinking that perhaps she set sail for India with her aunt, Sarah Rothwell (Edward's sister) and adopted the Rothwell name. 4 of Joseph & Sarah Rothwell's children were married in Bombay and after Joseph died, Sarah remarried in Bombay also. These 6 Bombay marriages are the only Rothwell ones in Bombay. Originally I'd thought Fanny was Joseph and Sarah's child as there was a lot of circumstantial evidence supporting it, but no birth registration has been found for a Fanny Rothwell, while all of the other Rothwell children were registered in Barnsley, Yorkshire.
Can anyone find a Fanny/Frances Seddon after the 1871 census? Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might link Fanny Seddon to Fanny Rothwell?
