Jessie Wallis
« on: Monday 06 September 10 10:51 BST (UK) »
Help I am trying to find out information about a Jessie Wallis, daughter of George Wallis 1850 and Sophia Allen 1856.  I know she was born in Stetchworth, Cambridgeshire and had many siblings but there the thread stops.  I am lead to believe that she had a son Albert in 1907 but as yet I cannot confirm this.  I do know that on the 1911 census she was living at 1 Mount Cottage Icewell Hill
Newmarket.  If anyone can shed any light on whether she had this child or if she got married it would be great.

When was she born? When were her parents born married? Were there any other Wallis' with her in 1911? What was her age in 1911?

Have you checked www.freebmd.org.uk which is what we would do?

Is this the Albert Wallis who is living with Jessie's parents George and Sarah as their nephew?  There doesn't seem to be a birth for an Albert Wallis 1907/8 in Cambridgeshire but there is one for a Wallis Male Newmarket Sept 1/4 1908 vol 3b page 473. Newmarket is the registration district for Stetchworth.
it may be worthwhile asking the GRO who is the mother of this child.
