Title: Ellen Maria A'Court c 1862.
Post by: Mike Thw on Wednesday 28 February 18 10:50 GMT (UK)

Can anybody find a Baptismal record for Ellen Maria A'Court, born c 1862 in the Yeovil area?

I believe she may have been illegitimate.

Thanks

I have her later information.

That birth registration gives no mothers maiden name on the GRO index. 

There is another birth registered the following year on freebmd for the full names you quoted

Fine, so when and where was that?
What does she give as a birthplace? (in which records)?
Does she marry?
Whom is given as parent/father upon marriage?
What names witness?

I've found (at long last  ::)) a baptismal record.
16 April 1862, Holy Trinity, Yeovil. Mother Eleanor A'Court.

(Come across Eleanor. Not the last illegitimate child!  :P)

Thanks for you time
