Sorry if it sounded confusing!
My gran is Florence Quick
She was born in 1899 - her parents were William Quick and Sophia Quick (whose maiden name was Penfoe = Penfold)
She was born in Winterbourne but lived around the Burlescombe/Nicholashayne area
I am trying to trace her mother - Sophia Penfold who was born c 1881 and I believe that her parents were Thomas and Sophia Penfold (nee Orchard) as per this thread

Gets confusing with so many Christian names coming up again and again - but Sophia Penfold (b1881) as far as I can tell was never actually officially married to William Quick and left shortly after 1901 and I cannot find out what happened to her

Excellent many thanks - I have seen her name written as both Soffia and Sophia which hasn't helped searching but pretty much sure she was born 1881 as either Sophia or Soffia Penfold
