Hi George,
I can only advise you get hold of the birth cert to make sure you're not tracing a wrong line again!
Agnes Lucy Humphreys
Mar 1887 Wrexham 11b 271
My favourite candidate on census is was!! - I see there's also a Lucy registered in Wrexham, Jun 1886 :-\ :-\
1891
RG12/4618 80 21
Wrexham, Denbighshire
9 Salop Rd
Wm Humphreys, head, 27, Coal Miner, b. Penley? Flint
Agnes, wife, 27, b. Wrexham
Harry, son, 5, scholar, b. do.
Lucy, dau, 4, scholar, b. do.
Annie, dau, 1, b. do.
:)

So - how do you know she was registered as Agnes Lucy?
This looks like the marriage:
Sep 1904 Doncaster 9c 1219
Lucy Humphreys to possibly Benjamin Guest
Might be worth getting the marriage cert first?
-
A birth is given on North Wales BMD for an Agnes Lucy Humphreys in 1887 at Wrexham.

could you tell me please if the 1886 humphreys is also called agnes lucy humphreys because thats the date i have been given for her dob thank you
-
The other birth registration is for a Lucy Humphries (the birth is on FreeBMD: http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/)
My problem is that the Lucy I posted is the only candidate I can see, when there should be 2 different girls showing on census ... :-\

ty tati
i am sure the spelling is humphreys and with her mother being called Agnes makes Agnes Lucy humphreys the main candidate even though the dates of birth worries me slightly my dilemma is i have a newspaper cutting stating her age as 82 the clipping is from a 1968 newspaper her married name was guest she is in the middle lower row any ideas
-
Do get her marriage cert to be on the safe side :)
-
got agnes lucy humphries in 1901 census west ridings yorkshire she is a servant age 14 yet on wed reg shes down as humphreys (lucy 1904) to benjamin guest mmmmm ??? strange better send for that marriage cert
-
agnes lucy humphreys was born 1887 in wrexham, the mistake was mine ::) i had the date of the newspaper clipping wrong , so that would make wm humphreys her father any other info on this family would be more than welcome ty
-
I'm afraid you can't conclude that she's the one, given as I said before that there are 2 birth registrations around the same time in Wrexham, one for a Lucy and one for an Agnes Lucy :-\
