Emily Helen GRANT - where was she born?
« on: Friday 03 February 17 11:14 GMT (UK) »
Hi
In my tree is Emily Helen GRANT born 1844. On the 1871 to 1901 England census she claims to be born in Norfolk. However I can not found her birth registered anywhere.

 In 1869 she married John PUSEY in Farnham Royal, Buckinghamshire. I think that she died in 1915 in Buckinghamshire.

Any help looking for her birth registration most appreciated.

Thank you in advance
Helen

Was Grant definitely her maiden name, as opposed to a previous married name?

Added: I see that mmn was indeed Grant on son Walter's 1875 birth registration.

Hi
In my tree is Emily Helen GRANT born 1844. On the 1871 to 1901 England census she claims to be born in Norfolk.

More precisely, her birthplace is given as Great Yarmouth, Norfolk in 1871 (when she is aged 27).

And again in 1881 (37).

Hi all
Thank you for your replies. Is it possible for some kind person to look for Emily Helen GRANT on the 1851 and 1861 census. Then we can see what is put down for her birthplace.

Many thanks
Helen
