Title: Census Mystery
Post by: staffie on Tuesday 09 December 08 13:49 GMT (UK)
Hi Staffie here

Just after some new ideas regarding an ancestor or rather lack of one

I have been trying to find the birth of a Novello Shelly Green born Jun 1/4 1869 in Shoreditch East London I have her marriage to a David Llewellyn Evans in 1904 in Hackney where his occupation shows as R O Clerk David incidentally was born also in Shoredith on 11 July 1870
I have a letter from him in December 1960 when he lived in Great Malvern ( not sure if Novello is still alive )
Right now the ????? I can’t find any record of Novello Green in any census 1881 /1891 /1901 so where can she be
I thought at first her father may have been in the military but according to David and Novello's marriage certificate he was a shoe maker ( Deceased )

So come on you clever lot where do I go or rather where did she GO?

Staffie ??? :-[

Sorry I meant Death for Novello plus where she went for 30 odd years
Must remember to engage brain and eyes at the same time

Think the 1871 entry must be her - it's difficult to read but dad is a ladies Bootmaker.  Do you have this?

:) :) ;) ;D  What a great bunch you are you have my Novello Shelley Green OK her marriage certificate gives her father as William Green Boot and shoe maker

I must be brain dead I searched for her as many versions of the name and even as Shelly Green but never considered a total mis spelling
I should have as I found my Grandmother Margaretta Evans listed in 1901 as Magratha Evans

How does a mere Mortal say THANK YOU  :D :D :) :)

I only hope I get to do the same for others

Many Many Thanks you opened other doors too with your census information
