Hello,
My Great-grandmother Elizabeth Bertha Attrill was born 1892 in Rookley, Isle of Wight. She was the daughter of James Henry Attrill b.1850/1 in Arreton, Isle of Wight and of Alice Jane Reed born about 1857 in Carisbrooke , Isle of Wight. I want to find out more about Alice Jane Reed . what is her real birth date ? And her parents? And when did she die ? I don't have more information about her . I hope you can help me to get further back with my Reed family :)
Best regards
Jane

Her marriage certificate should give you the name and occupation of her father - do you have that?
-
Possible death as Alice Jane Attrill aged 59, Jun qtr 1916 Isle of Wight.

Thanks for your answer ;)
No i don't have her marriage certificate and i don't know much about her. I think that she was born in year 1857 in Carisbrooke this Information comes from Myheritage.
Regards
Jane

All the censuses after marriage give her birth place as Isle of Wight, Carisbrooke though she does use the name Jane in 1901 and 1911.
Do you have the census records?

A George Reed married a Charlotte Blow Isle of Wight Dec 1/4 1852. If this is the George and Charlotte in my previous post it is a good example of the variations in spelling that can happen.
There is a birth registration of a Jane Reed Dec 1/4 1856 mother's maiden name Blow. No birth reg for an Alice Jane 1856-1858.
There are two births for Alice Maud Read in 1857
No births for Alice Reid or Jane Reid
So could your Alice Jane on her marriage certificate actually have been registered as Jane at birth but her parents added Alice at her baptism?.

Was Alice Jane born in Gatcombe?
If you look at the birth registration on FreeBMD Dec 1/4 1856 district IOW, by clicking on IOW then on the word 'Here' you will see the districts that are included and Gatcombe is one of them.
I am not too sure about that 1871 census entry in my last post because Portsmouth is not under IOW but I can't see a birth of a Jane Reed/Read/Reid 1855-1858 in Portsmouth. There is a Jane Read Portsea Dec 1/4 1855, and your Jane Reed 1856 .
Added:- I have just found a Jane Read age 25 born Portsmouth in the 1881census with her parents John and Jane Read.
