Title: Miriam France
Post by: alveleyhistorian on Tuesday 18 April 06 10:41 BST (UK)

Hi there,
Just a quick note wondering if some kind sol can help me with this Brickwall ?
Miriam France was born in Alveley Village, Nr Bridgnorth in 1871 daughter of William and Mary France.
Mary France dies, and William marries Elizabeth Harley. The family are listed in the 1881 census as living in Alveley. But I can find no trace of Miriam after that.
I am interested in finding out where Miriam went and if she married, children etc etc.
Any help or advise much appreciated :) :) :) :)

start by looking at death/marriage index and Images at www.ancestry.co.uk

There's no 'magic' way for anyone else to do it in any other way, and the method above is something that everyone has aceess to,

Eureka ! ;D
Amazing what joy can come from a drizzly wet afternoon !
I have found Miriam !
Miriam France married Walter Herbert Edwards in the Kidderminster area in 1890.
Looks like she died in the 1940's...
Another long-time brickwall solved  ;) ;) ;) ;)
