Woodstock.Dorothy Mary Prior born 1897

[gingerslf]

Hi
I'm looking to find the mother and father and any other info on Dorothy Mary Prior born 14/11/1897.

I think she married a Henry Winter from Norfolk in Woodstock in 1927.

I believe her mother may have been called Mary Ann.

Dorothy had a sister Margaret b1899 in Woodstock Union Workhouse..her mother was Mary Ann, her residence is given as the  workhouse, but no father is given on birth certificate.

Any info is gratefully received...
Thanks
Steve

Hi Steve,

            What about this one in 1901 in Woodstock, Oxfordshire
                  RG13 / 1392 / 15 / 22

Letitia Prior head age 57 occ charwoman
Charlotte dau age 17 occ glove machinist
Dorothy M dau age 4
Margaret M dau age 1
Mary A Prior niece age 3

All b Woodstock

   If you have access to ancestry check the original census as it gives Letitia as single.
   Also gives occupation of niece as glove ? worker and age looks like 31 and not 3

      Hope this helps

Sue...just to clarify then....

I had seen that...but was confused as to the ages....

Charlotte is daughter of Letitia...Correct?

Mary Ann (aged 31, not 3) is the niece of Letitia and is the mother of Margaret and Dorothy Mary based on the info I already have re Margaret.

So Letitia is Mary Ann's aunt...and Mary Ann is the daughter of one of Letitia's siblings..........................

  Mary Ann would be dau of Letitia's brother or sister Lets check other census

                             Sue

 Here they are in 1881
     RG11 / 1512 / 41 / 16

John Prior head age 70 b Woodstock, occ town crier ( munic )
Louisa wife age 54 b Bletchington, Oxfordshire
Letitia dau age 41, single, b Woodstock, no occ
Mary Ann Prior granddaughter age 14 b Tackley, Oxfordshire

   Address Oxford Street, Woodstock

   So is Mary Ann dau of Thomas or Letitia

                Sue

[gingerslf]

   So is Mary Ann dau of Thomas or Letitia

                Sue

To confirm I will need Mary Ann birth certificate..right

As Mary Ann is still with Letitia in 1881 would that suggest she is her mother?

Tackley...That's where I was born....

[jamajo]

 Trouble is i can't find any of them in 1891

 Maybe Mary Ann is the daughter of Thomas, Letitia's brother

  What do you think?

I thought that initially....Louisa was Johns 2nd wife, Catherine was the 1st, they had 5 children:
John born 1837 was in London in 1861, that counts him out....I think.
James born 1843 married a Harriet in 1870.
Georgina born 1846..that's all I know.
Thomas born 1849
Letitia...I have found  DOB's ranging from 1839 to 1844.

I can't find details of Mary Ann to get a birth certificate!???

I also can't find them on 1891...
