Louisa Mansell born 1891 Holt, kingsbury, Warwickshire.
« on: Thursday 21 September 17 09:37 BST (UK) »
Good morning all you nice people.

I am just on my way to the records office so I thought I would pose this question while I am away.

I am looking for Louisa Mansell sister of Gertrude Mansell of my previous topic.

Father is William Mansell.

Birth reg. Dec qtr 1891 Tamworth 6b 425. Bapt. 19/4/1894 Kingsbury.

1901 aged 9 living with her parents and siblings at Kingsbury.

The next census she is living in Sutton Coldfield with a Merrifield family.

in 1912 it looks like she is one of the witnesses at her sister Gertrude's wedding and after that I can't find her.

I have found 3 marriages that could be her.

Frederick W Stephens June 1919 Birmingham.
Horace J J Higgs Dec 1925 Birmingham.
William E Purcell Sept 1925 Wolverhampton.

Can any of you clever people find anything Please.

Have you tried what I would think is probably the first place to look, the 1939 register  :-\

Possible if died just before her birthday?

Deaths December quarter 1961 
Louisa Mansell age 69 in Bilston

But she could be the Louisa with Arthur in 1939 (born 1892) in Willenhall.

Get her birth certificate so you can search the 1939 with exact date of birth?
