Amy Georgina Warcus
« on: Monday 04 December 06 12:00 GMT (UK) »
Hi All.
I have just been sent the last will of the above lady, my cousin.
She died in 1959. she was born in 1873, have found that in free B M D.
But i can not find the family in the 1881 census.
But i also have a death cert for her father who was found drowned in the Thames in 1864.
So maybe her mother re married?.
How do i go about finding them.
Any help please.

Hi Tati.
Thank you for your reply.
The family you found in 1901 is not mine.
The father was drowned in Thames in 1864.
As Amy never married i would have thought i would have been able to get her up on the 1881 census under her own name even if her mother had re married.

Just a query ... If her father died in 1864 how was she born in 1873???

Was the 1864 death her grandfather?
