Louisa Mary STEVENSON-WOODHOUSE

[dbrobertson]

This is terrific! We've found out far more about Louisa Mary and her times than I would have anticipated.

My wife tells me that the family stories featuring Louisa Mary paint her as a strong personality - she apparently insisted upon the hyphenated surname throughout her adult lifetime. It doesn't seem that any of her siblings joined her in this.

That 1871 census return contained enough errors (even eldest daughter aged only 10 years in 20) that it wouldn't be out of place on a Canadian census of that year.

Later today I'll sketch out the Woodhouse clan with all this 'new' info.

Thanks again.
