Hi Willow
The Hursley entry looks promising but the age is wrong, I have a birth date of 6th June 1891

Hi Malc,
Are you sure the birthdate is 1891, I can't see a Dorothy Martha WRIGHT born anywhere in 1891, but there is this one that looks likely in 1892,
Dorothy Martha WRIGHT Jun Q 1892 Southampton v.2c p.37
Regards

Hi Daisy
I think you must be right, that the birth date I have is 1 year out.
ie not 1891 but 6th May 1892, the quarter is correct, therefore the age on the 1901 census would be 8yrs, it looks likely that she is the person visiting
her Uncle or Aunt in Hursley.
Many thanks
Malcolm
