Title: COMPLETED 1901 census look-up - Maud BRAUNTON/BRANTON
Post by: melasia on Tuesday 10 September 13 23:36 BST (UK)
If any kind person could look up this lady, born about 1888 in Welcombe or Hartland, Devon and find out who she's living with, I'd be very, very grateful.

I have her in the 1891 Devon census living with her grandparents:

RG12/1789

Place: Bideford -Devon Enumeration District: 9
Civil Parish: Welcombe Ecclesiastical Parish: Welcombe
Folio: 92 Page: 5 Schedule: 29
Address: Witheford

BRANTON   William       Head             Married   M    70  Farmer  b. Hartland, Devon
BRANTON   Mary        Wife               Married   F     65        b. Welcombe, Devon
BRANTON   Georgina   Daughter       Single     F    22         b. Hartland, Devon
BRANTON, Frederick   Son                Single    M    19         b. Hartland, Devon
BRANTON, Maud        Granddaughter  Single   F    3           b. Welcombe, Devon

I'm guessing she may be Georgina's illegitimate daughter, but I don't know. I think she gets sent off to live with an aunt or uncle in Bristol thereafter and she marries in Bristol in 1914.

Thank you very much, Claire - that's her, all right. And it's given me her aunt's married name, which had been eluding me for years. I'm very grateful.
