Title: 1891 census lookup in Sheffield, Yorks
Post by: chuffinelle on Sunday 06 May 07 22:44 BST (UK)
I am looking for Frances Lucilla FLETCHER - born in Nottingham in 1866.  She never married. 

I believe that she was in Sheffield For the 1891 census - but I don't know which area.

It's very little to go on  but I'm hoping that her name is unusual enough to make her relatively easy to find. 

I would be grateful for any help or advice.
