Hello all. I have an ancestor who I have several censuses for who always said that her place of birth was Manchester. Her name (maiden) was Pauline Strauss, and while the censuses from 1891-1911 differed in date of birth between 1867 and 1875 the 1921 Census and 1939 Register were relatively similar, mainly claiming that she was born in September/December 1865 or 1868. She married Francis George Glennie on the 2nd of August 1890 and had five children. The jist of it is that I have searched the GRO indexes endless times under any variation of her name I can think of - the only other details I know about her is that her father was Jacob Strauss, a traveller and she (probably) had three siblings, one of which I have found (Solomon, 1868 in Austria - December 1911 in Manchester).
Thank you very much, all.

Note that she was not the Paulina Strauss born in 1872 in Mile End Old Town*

On the 1891 census Blackpool Boarding House
Pauline Glennie is 22 giving DOB as 1869.
Francis George Glennie is 28
-----
Was she full age when married in 1890 or was her father's permission required?

Several of these replies are very possible, thank you all very much!
Strauchbaum is very possible, and yes, I believe she did need her father's permission as her age is listed as opposed to "full age".
Thank you all.

Does Selik Whiteman become Sydney Whiteman?
If so he goes to the USA and his record has his parents as Isaac Whiteman and Ann Strauss.
