1864 christening
« on: Wednesday 01 August 18 18:46 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I have the christening date for Helen Sarah Streeter (sic) from Farringdon in 1864. In my experience, post-1837 christening dates often hold birthdays too. Can anyone see if this is the case?

Thanks,

Adam

Sadly can only see a transcription but if she was still alive in 1939 you might get her birthday that way.

I've never found her in 1939 :( I think she was still living in Hornsey then, before she moved to Wood Green.

Did she marry or was she single woman? 

If she had family living with her might be able to find her that way.

She was a widow. I'm fairly certain she was living with my great-great-uncle Jack (John William McGregor) and I haven't found him either.

The electoral roll for that year has Sarah Helen McGregor and John William McGregor living Hornsey as you said.

Once again, I cannot find it. I can find a JW McGregor living in Barrow-in-Furness and all sorts of other places but not in Hornsey. Nor a Helen Sarah or a Sarah Helen.
