Louisa Bland
« on: Friday 12 June 15 17:54 BST (UK) »
Louisa Bland m William Lumb in Leicester in 1853. (freeBMD - I don't have a certificate). I can find her in the censuses in 1861, 71, 81. She states in 1861 and 71 that she was born in Billesdon.

FamilySearch has a baptism for Louisa Bland, daughter of John and Jane Bland in Billesdon on 18 Aug 1833 so I guess this is her. But I can't find her anywhere in 1841 or 51. Can anyone spot her? Then neither can I find a death or remarriage for her (William died in 1866 and she's not buried with him!)

(there was another Louisa Bland b Leic 1843, d of Henry and Angelina so I am trying not to confuse the two!)

Oh yes, I think that's a mistranscription, thank you!

Now where is she in 1841? and when did she die?

Did you find any siblings for her on family search, and what occupation did her father have?

She seems to re-marry as Louisa Jane LUMB to William BRIGGS. In 1891 she says she was born 1833 Billesdon so I'm pretty sure it's her. :)
