Jessie NORTON B. 1865 in Deles Lane, Rochester, Kent, England
« on: Monday 31 August 15 23:06 BST (UK) »
Can anyone help me out & help me find the birth of this woman & who her parents & siblings were?
She is my great Aunt married to my Great Uncle Fredrick Smith in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, Canada.  My records show her born about 1865 but this could be a bit of an error.

She does not appear on the 1871 census under that name which could mean the family emigrated before the 1871 census. 

You will need to buy a copy of her birth cert to obtain details of her parents

A tree on Ancestry has her parents as George Norton and Amelia Martin.  There is an 1864 marriage for them on freebmd

Thank you so much.  Really appreciate your help.  Not sure if the parents immigrated to Canada or if she came alone with her brother, but do appreciate your looking this up.

This could be them, but unsure as there were other George Norton in Kent.  However the name Amelia certainly looks obvious.  Thank you so much.
