Looks good...

It does indeed 

Well done! Big smiles!

So we effectively have her CENSUS records for 1841, 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881 and missing in 1891 and finding it hard to find a death record (oh and did I forget to mention that really annoying missing marriage record).

Esther GRIFFITHS / WHITCHURCH did exist!

I haven't heard back from email (maybe 16 years ago is .... pushing it)

I have enhanced the 1881 and Shant is definitely Mont.

[Chev]

Wow, no limits to your detective skills. I can see how it looks like "Shant" but I'm claiming it's "Mont". The ages on this census are out - so it looks like whoever informed the census taker on the night was either telling fibs or .... maybe one of the younger ones gave the information over and guessed.

(singing) It's here, it's here, it's here 

Mont's death cert

Enjoy! Then post me

I have never trusted whats written on census's, people lied or were illiterate and maybe the enumerator was drunk.

Good one, at least we know how he died, not in action but exhausted.

[Chev]

and drumroll .... she exists, here's Mont's birth certificate  came today

Thats good news, now to find Mont and Annie in 1891 and 1901. They had 3 children born before 1901 but I can't find them anywhere. Maybe HMS Iris is the key, they were probably cruising around the Caribbean.
