1871 Kent - Dunmall or Roffey?
« on: Saturday 17 September 05 05:55 BST (UK) »
Hope someone can find this young lady for me in 1871 I have found her in 1861 with parents below

1861 Crockenhill, Eynsford RG9 469 76 p 10
Thomas ROFFEY head mar 30 ag lab b.Bromley
Jane wife 27 b.Farningham
Alice dau 7 b.Eynsford
George son 5 b.Eynsford
Richard son 3 b.Eynsford

and in 1881 below married and with siblings staying with her

Dartford
20 Home/Holme Garden
James Martin    26   Lab      Dartford
Ann (Alice)      27         Crockenhill
Thomas Martin 2mths      Dartford
Richard  Roffey brother  22   Lab   Crockenhill
Lizzy Roffey     sister      11      Crockenhill

The problem is when she married James Martin in 1889 she was Alice Dunmall her mother's single surname and not Roffey.  So I do not know if in 1871 she is down as Dunmall or Roffey.

Hope someone can sort out this one for me.
Thanks for any help

Thank you both for your help - it is just that I like to account for everyone.
I think the 17 year old Roffe is the likely candidate.  More likely she wasn't aware she was a Roffey until she wanted to get married.
It will be worth sending for this birth certificate to find out if the father has been named.
Thanks very much to everyone for making this hobby so accessable.
