Census For Caroline ROSSITER COMPLETED WITH THANKS

[rcuser]

Hi,

I am doing a one name study of the Rossiter family and am looking for information please about the parents, grandparents, siblings and children of Caroline Rossiter who married Sydenham Chard on April 24th 1864 at St Peter & St Paul, Shepton Mallet.

Sydenham was born circa 1839 at Oakhill but I have no details of Caroline.

Any information would be greatly appreciated please.TIA.

Best wishes

Hi Cat,

Many thanks for that.

I found a death record for a Caroline Chard in Clutton in 1869 aged 26 but I'm not sure if it's the right one.

Maybe the earlier censuses will show up something.

Hi Cat,

Many thanks for that.

That's the match I was looking for.

It doesn't look like they had any children before Caroline died.

I think we can wrap this one now.

Thanks again for all your help.

Have a good weekend.

Best wishes
