Laura Barrett or Barratt
« on: Tuesday 12 April 11 20:59 BST (UK) »
My Great Grandmother is a bit of a mystery, I found her on the 1901 Census living in Isle of Ely Littleport it says she was born in 1885 in Little Witchingham Norfolk and put her surname as Barrett, then she married Harry Fountain, and when he died she married My great grandfather James Goodburn, the husbands were cousins and she lived in Benwick Cambridgeshire with both husbands and remained in benwick for the rest of her life, on both marriages she spells her name as Barrett and on the 1911 census she leaves blank where she was born.
What I want to know is where she is on the census's before 1901, I cannot find her anywhere, and on the 1911 census she puts her birth year at 1887 not 1885 as in 1901.

Strong possibility there, keyboard86- oh ye of many talents  ;D

In 1901 Laura is with an Edith Barrett 22 yrs

The one you found also has an Edith M aged 18 yrs but could possibly be 13 yrs on census.

Free BMD has Edith Mary b 1878 St Faiths which is right registration district.

I have not posted all because I am assuming Agatha, that you have access?

Hi Are you saying you cannot locate Laura on 1891? Which site do you use for your research?
