Can anyone help me overcome a brick wall.
Isabella Huntington was born on 18th May 1888 to Gilfred and Annie Huntington (Parish Register).
In 1901, she is located at Nazareth House in Lancaster (Census), I presume because mum was the local whore and dad couldn't cope having been in court for failing to send kids to school.
In 1910, Isabella had a child called Mary A Huntington and she was to be found in St Ignacious Church in Preston.
In 1911, she is to be found in Kelton Convent in Aigburth with her daughter (census)
In 1921, she could possibly be at Nazareth House in Crosby, this is where Mary is and I have had that confirmed by them in a telephone call.
The trail goes quiet after this for both of them.
In the 1939 Register, there is a Isabelle Huntington with a DOB of the 24th May living with a Charles Huntington, and it is marked Latham and Hollingsworth above it. I think this may be an error and the Charles Huntington is in fact Charles Latham as I am sure I found a marriage between them but cannot be 100%.
Can anyone offer any assistance.

The 1939 register indicates 2 amendments to her record, one in 1943 and the other 1953
The marriage you refer to was in 1943

Thank you both for your help, so she has probably gone from Huntington to Latham in 1943 and Latham to Hollingworth in 1953?
So it looks like I am looking for Isabella Hollingworth.

I wonder if this was the death of Charles Latham / Leatham
Death Mar qtr 1944
Leatham Charles age 50
Liverpool S. 8b 1

Thank you, I will take a look at that one shortly, suggests she may have resided in Liverpool still.

Could this be Isabella's death
Death March qtr 1967
Hollingworth, Isabella age 78
Mansfield reg district 3c 137
ADDED She married Charles in Liverpool the year before that possible death for him

Maybe this was the death of Henry a year after the marriage
Death June qtr 1954

The birth is just registered as Mary
HUNTINGTON, MARY - (No mothers maiden name)
GRO Reference: 1910 Sept Quarter in PRESTON Volume 08E Page 481
Do you have this certificate as the birth date could help to locate her in 1939 or later
