Emma Cousins B 1889 Plumstead
« on: Sunday 22 November 15 08:40 GMT (UK) »
My Grandmother showed me a photo many years ago and said that it was Emma Cousins who had gone to Australia possibly married but died in a riding accident
Well that is the story!!
Emma was the daughter of William Cousins and Charlotte Sarah Ann O'Hara ( he was born in Crayford and she in Bexley)
On the 1911 census Emma is shown as a servant on holiday
In the will of William Cousins who died in 1827 there is no mention of Emma but all the other children are mentioned
Either she is deceased or fallen out with her father
I have checked uk marriages and deaths also travel records but could have missed it!!
Can anyone help?
Many thanks

Unfortunately Emma Cousins is quite a common name, pity she didn't have a middle name, have you checked on sibling marriages to see if she was a witness

In the 1911 census she has Olivia as a middle name  ..There are a few immigration records for an E Cousins departing from England to Australia but not a lot information so hard to tell if this is your Emma

Quite inexplicably , the name Olivia is not on the census form !
