Where did she go?

[skimble]

Thank you all.

Parents, John and Ann and siblings living with them (John and Priscilla), as Jane has said in the above post.  Other siblings - George, Eleanor, Mary and Herbert, all accounted for.  I have the 1901 census for all of them and she's not with them.

Clive I would be very grateful if you would look for me.  Thank you.

Only me again, did she have an occupation on her marriage certificate?? might lead to a clue, just a thought



Jane - patient gone now

I thought it might have been the Eliza Theaker too Jane but there is a birth for her in 1875

Ok she is well hidden, I have tried a wild card - nothing, changed Harker to Parker, Clarker - nothing, did she have another christian name

She's a difficult one isn't she?

Her middle name was Ann (tried that), no occupation when she was married, nor in the 1891 census when she was 16.  I've tried various different types of her name - Eliz, Elizabeth, Lizzie etc and various surnames.

I checked her husband to be just in case she was living under the brush with him but no!

Apparently she was never quite sure how old she was, maybe she got her age wrong?

Why would she go to Bradford if not to work   She is a real puzzle I have tried all names, who did she marry

She married Simeon Rhodes, he was born 1870 in Bradford.

She apparently went to work as a maid to the vicar of Idle Parish Church as a teenager.  Not sure of the years, but was living with her parents at 16 in 1891.

According to http://www.calverley.info the vicar of the church was a William Marshall, I've checked him for 1901 too and she's not with him.  Presumably she met Simeon when she was working for the vicar.

Ok is he the one listed as Simon in 1901, living with brother James??  If so, I have checked pages either side to see if she is about in neighbourhood, as my elusive Priscilla does that in 1891, as a boarder in the next street to my gt grandad that she later marries, and still nothing

Yes that's him.  I've checked all his siblings too, just in case, she's not there either.
