Title: Census records for 1871 and 1881 for Emma Ollington?
Post by: jen56johns on Monday 23 July 18 12:40 BST (UK)

Hi all,
I’m hoping you can help me find Emma Ollington, born in Thetford, Norfolk in 1851.
I’ve got her on the 1851 census with her mother Harriet. In 1861, she’s listed as Emma Millen with her mother’s new family in Folkestone, Kent.
But then I can’t find her until 1891 and she’s married Ambrose Jolley in Paddington, London.
I’ve seen Ollington spelled Allington and tried that. I’ve searched for Millen. Any other suggestions? Often I’m missing something obvious which is why I’m turning to you lovely people to help me out please.
Thank you so much!
Jenni.

Kay and Suz, what keen eyes you have!

They both seem like really good possibilities and answer some questions for me.
