missing information
« on: Tuesday 09 May 17 16:34 BST (UK) »
Sarah Edgar born 1876 in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, christened 20 April in Great Barlow, Derbyshire. Father William Edgar, born 1846 Kendal / Westmorland. Died 1893.
Mother Dinah Elizabeth Edgar (nee Harris) had a daughter Sarah Jane Robinson born 1874 Kendal, had another daughter Mary Edgar in 1879  in Middleton, Westmorland. Mother Dinah died in 1881 leaving a husband and 3 daughters. Sarah Jane Robinson went on to marry Thomas Kelly, Sarah Edgar found in 1901 census living with Thomas E Fardell, Emma Fardell, Louise Fardell (daughter). Sarah and 2 other ladies were living at the same address listed as lodgers.
I cannot find any information regarding Mary after her mother died as in 1901 William is recorded as living alone. What happened to the 3 girls immediately following their mothers death. Any information would be appreciated.
I am very new (only 1 week) into my research so apology if this is not the correct way to ask for assistance

That Mary Harris Edgar appears not to have married as there is a death in 1973 in Lancaster.
Mary Harris Edgar born 29th June 1878, a birth certificate would confirm parents , though it may not be your Mary of course.

Hi
Welcome to Rootschat :D

In 1891 Mary Harris Edgar Niece 12 Scholar born Middleton is living with Moses and Hannah Dickinson  in Skelsmergh Westmorland  RG12/4330/78 pg8

I can post full details if you don't have access to the censuses

Jan

Hannah likely sister to William as they have a daughter Sarah Edgar Dickinson - I see from your other thread that he did indeed have a sister Hannah of the right age and birthplace.
Sarah Jane Robinson is a bit of a mystery.

Hi Cath 151

Thank you for the information, I think I understand what you are telling me, but Mary did not have a middle name, so I believe as you have said that the information I am seeking does not tie in with the Mary Edgar I ma seeking.

Thanks

What makes you sure Mary didn't have a middle name Maureen?
This is the birth reference from your other thread

EDGAR, MARY  HARRIS  Mmn HARRIS 
GRO Reference: 1878  S Quarter in KENDAL  Volume 10B  Page 709

Only the certificate would prove that her mother is Dinah of course

Jan
