Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Re: 1901 Census Knaresborough
« on: Monday 14 February 05 23:43 GMT (UK)  »
  There is only her birth listed for knaresborough  March quarter 1876  9a 99  I have found these marriages else where

Bryant, Jane Elizabeth 1896 June Marriages Portsea Island Hampshire
 Bryant, Jane Elizabeth 1900 September Marriages Shoreditch London Middlesex
 Bryant, Jane Elizabeth 1902 December Marriages Eton Buckinghamshire
  but without  buying them You would never know which if any is her
there are 21 dobsons living in Knaresborough in 1901 made up of 4 main families and a few strays but none of them have Jane with them

 I would expect she has moved away, married or even died
Hope this sheds some light for you regards  Rowdy

The only time I've come across this on my own family line is with my great grandmother Eliza Holt Faulkner she took that name  when she was adopted in her early teens by Benjamin Faulkner   and his wife  the Holt being her birth name

when she married she dropped it and became Clarke
