For the Notes pile . . . . .     


 
There would seem to be 3x other Elizabeth Ann WEBBER born 1883-6 in Williton
In census 1891 Wootton Courtney, Williton RG12 / 1864 / 57 / page 11
living with George Ferris and Mary Ann (Howe) is
Elizabeth A WEBER (5y) born Williton (Boarder&Scholar)     



No siblings, parents. Is that why she never "spoke about siblings"?

WEBBER, ELIZABETH  ANN, mmn STRONG

In 1891 Louisa and 'John' are together in Plymouth - the whole family listed as Paul.   Louisa's daughter Elizabeth is with them - I believe Trish's posting of her birth is the correct one.

The 1891 census also shows daughter Lavinia 14 with them - however, she seems to have been listed twice as Louisa's older children are living with an aunt/uncle in Minehead, William, Lavinia and Louisa. In 1901 William and Louisa still with aunt/uncle in Minehead.

John Paul is Arthur John Paul in 1891 and 1911 but believe his birth was as John Arthur Paul in Sept.1858 Camelford (illegitimate).  Just to add to the confusion, the births of the children with John Paul: John Arthur registered Arthur John Mar.1886 Plymouth - mmn Webber (?), Mabel Jun.1887 Plymouth - mmn Webber, Ann (as 1891 census) is Mary Ann Sept.1888 Plymouth - mmn Strong, George Ellard Dec.1890 Plymouth - mmn Strong, died Sept.1891, George Dec.1892 Plymouth - mmn Strong and Beatrice Maud Dec.1896 Plymouth - mmn Strong.  So, the first 2 Paul children show Louisa's married surname as her maiden name rather than Strong!
