Looking for Florence Stewart
« on: Monday 26 July 21 06:39 BST (UK) »
Our family records show a Florence Stewart born 1866 and possibly died 1920. Her mother was Emily Alice Stewart and Father Willian Stewart. From her younger sister and older brother's place of birth on their birth certificates, Florence would probably been born at 37 Burton Road, Brixton. I am unable to find any definitive birth or death certificate. Unfortunately a lot of Florence Stewarts born around that time! She would have had a middle name but that is not on the family records unfortunately. I cannot find her in the 1871 census. As there is no other information in the family about her life, I am wondering if she might have died young, but against that is the date of death of 1920 given in the family record.
I am hoping that a Rootschat 'detective' might come up with a suggestion or even find her.

To aid in the search can you tell us what Emily Alice's maiden name was and also the names of Florence's younger sister and older brother please.

Thanks

Number of online trees for this particular STEWART family and as JohnHood says no Florence anywhere.

In 1881 they are in Brighton.

Presumably this was the death record that the family record used.  Do you have a copy?

Florence Stewart age 56
Dec Qtr 1920 Camberwell Vol 1d Page:    792

It may relate to this workhouse discharge

Florence Stewart Age:    56
Record Type:    Discharge
Birth Date:    abt 1864
Discharge :    11 Dec 1920 Southwark, London
