1901 census look up please
« on: Monday 30 June 08 19:00 BST (UK) »
Looking for Bessie Burt born 1879 Wiltshire, parents are George and Caroline/Frances Burt both born about 1855 also Wiltshire.

Many thanks

Hi Wendy,

Was she definitely born Wiltshire? Searching for her birth place on earlier census, this is the most likely match I see:
http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=uki1881&indiv=try&h=6667319
RG11/1164 37 2

Bessie M Burt born Gosport Hampshire - is she the one?

... in which case this looks like the likeliest young woman in 1901:

RG13/606 14 22
Godalming, Surrey
Tottenham Road
Frederick Eyles, head, 23, Railway Clerk, b. Hampshire Fareham
Bessie Martha, wife, 21, b. Gosport

(marriage Mar 1901 Alverstoke 2b 796 Frederick Eyles - Bessie Martha Burt)

Are you able to tell me if Bessie Burt had any other brothers or sisters?  Parents were Frances/Caroline Wright and George Burt.  Thanks.

Amanda.
