The Common Room / Carroll to Caron?
« on: Wednesday 08 September 10 19:48 BST (UK) »
I would really appreciate some advice please on the possibility of a birth being registered in 1875 with the surname spelled incorrectly.
I am trying to find a birth record for Henrietta Carroll, born about 1875 in Monmouthshire but I have been unable to find it. I have found that this surname has been transcribed incorrectly on various census records, I have even found it listed as Carrde on the 1891 census!)
The only birth recorded that is a possibility is for a Henrietta Caron, Mar qtr 1875, Bedwellty, Monmouthshire.
This date and area is just right.
I have looked at the 1881 to 1901 census for both Wales & England and also for death records for Henrietta Caron but have found nothing. Do you think then that it could be Henrietta Carroll but was entered in the register incorrectly?
Or am I just barking up the wrong tree in desperation?
Would welcome any advice.
