1871 census - Wood in Yorkshire
« on: Wednesday 22 December 04 14:04 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone please help me find my gg grandmother's sister in 1871.

She was born Susanna Jeffrey in the village of Timble near Fewston in the West Riding of Yorkshire. She was born in 1819. In a will written in 1883 her brother referred to her as Susannah Wood. However I don't know when she married or the first name of her husband.

Any help much appreciated

Many thanks for looking for my Susanna.

I can't be sure but I don't think either of these is the right one. Both a bit too old.

Woops  :-[ Somehow got 1809 in my head.
    
  I found this familly in 1871. I know she is a bit younger but she does seem to match with a widow in 1881 who is defininitely born in Fewston. Also checked and young Arthur is living with grandparents in 1881 so could be her ???  :-\ Regards Jan

Dear Jan

Yes I think the 1881 Susannah is mine even though the age is wrong by a few years but I'm not sure about the 1871 entry mainly because her birthplace is not Fewston. But ..............

Many thanks for the help
