There is no birth registration for a Muriel Alice Harrington and it is not known for definite where she was actually born.

The absence of a birth reg can be attributed to either of the following:

She was born somewhere other than England, Wales or Scotland - possibly South Africa

She was registered under a different surname and took the surname Harrington in later life - possibly via adoption if she was born illegitimate
