Hello,

Can't find Sparshot, do you mean Sparsholt?  Sorry my geography of Berks is poor :(

There is a Susan Curtis aged 2, b Uffington Berks with parents Richard and Emma living in Uffington.  Can provide more info if that looks likely.

Any more info that may identify her more easily? Parents names etc?

Regards
Jonathan

Me again,

Just noticed that Uffington and Sparsholt are very close to each other just outside of Wantage, if that helps.

Regards
Jonathan

Hi
It would appear it is the correct Susan,in the 1891 she appears as Susan Ferris born Uffington. If you would like the census lookup let me know.

Hello,

As Nicky says, that's the most likely match.  The marriage certificate will give the father's name so you can verify it that way.

There is a baptism on the IGI for this Susan by the looks of it,  30 AUG 1868   Uffington, Berkshire, England.  Father Richard Curtis, Mother Emma Poodle - but you'd have to verify that as well - that is of course if this is your Susan.

Best of Luck
Jonathan
