Rosanna Mary Stevens
« on: Saturday 09 October 10 23:06 BST (UK) »
Hello

I am trying to find Rosanna Mary Stevens born abt 1858 in Fonthill Gifford, Wiltshire, England after 1871.

in 1861 she is in  in Fonthill Gifford, Wiltshire, England aged 3 with parents and 2 older sisters

Thomas Stevens     32
Hannah Stevens    26
Sophia A Stevens    6
Emma J Stevens    5

in 1871 she is in Hindon, Wiltshire, England with the following family members
Thomas Stevens     42
Anna (Hannah) Stevens    36
Rosanna Stevens    12
Elizabeth Stevens    10
Louisa Stevens    8
Lot Stevens    6
Frances M Stevens    1

Sophia Ann and Emma Jane from the 1861 census are still alive and living elsewhere.

However sometime between 1871 and 1874 the family upped sticks and moved to a village called Forcett near Richmond in North Yorkshire.

I have the following Information on Rosanna's siblings
Sophia Ann Stevens 1854 – 1938 have her
Emma Jane Stevens 1856 – 1944
George Stevens 1860 – 1866
Elizabeth Stevens 1861 – 1898
Louisa Stevens 1863 – 1896
Lot Stevens 1864 – 1904
Alice Elvira Stevens 1868 – 1868
Frances Mary Stevens 1870 – 1938
Fred Stevens 1872 – 1872
John Thomas Stevens 1874 – 1930
William Stevens 1878 – 1906

Parents Thomas and Hannah along with all children who were surviving, either single  or married all moved to North Yorkshire (with spouses where applicable) , however I have been unable to find anything on Rosanna.

I can't find a death anywhere in the UK, so can only assume that she moved up North with the rest of her family.  I have not been able to find her on the census, or BMD's so am hoping for a bit of assistance.

Just a suggestion which you have probably already tried - have you looked at the census and free bmd using only her first name - no surname?  It's a bit of a trawl if you use variants but you may pick her up from her birthplace/registration place.

I think I have tried all variants I could think of in both forename and surname.  I might just have to leave her for now, can come back to her another time when I find a Wrecking Ball to smash this wall down with.

This is grasping at straws but there was an Annie Stevens marriage registration in Tisbury (where Rosanna's birth was registered) March 1879.

Hi,
I've just found your request for info on Rosanna Mary Stevens.  Is her Father Thomas the son of William Stevens and Rachel Day do you know?

Hi Emma,
I'm also researching Fonthill Gifford families.  They all seem to be connected.  My Gt Grandmother was a Jane Stevens.  If I find anything about Rosanna during my research I will let you know.  There is a Thomas Stevens born/christened 26 April 1829 but he is the son of William and Rachel Day.
Good Luck
Gayle
