Are these on the 1891 or 1901 census so I can look them up, please?

I've just found the Elizabeth, Newark on 1901, but she's married so I don't think it's her somehow, I'll check out the rest

1891 census

Hi BG

There is an Eliza Smith age 15 domestic servant  her birth place is given as "Cleton" although looking at the page it is very difficult to work out. She is with the Kirk family at Hucknall Torkard.

This is the 1891 RG12/2674/37/20

Eliza definitely isn't Betsy!  Betsy appears in 1901 and 1911 always born in Balderton but living elsewhere, whislt Eliza was in other places in those censi.

Trawled through 2000 Smiths last night and still no sibn of Eliza!

Well done and welcome to Rootschat 

Thank you for your time in  eliminating her

Oh bless you, thank you so much for trying, what a sterling effort, it's a bit mind blowing isn't it hehe!!!

Thank you for that ref - well I've looked at this one, zoomed in and zoomed out, looked at it upsidedown and back to front and decided that it says Selston which makes me eliminate it as a possible option, don't know why it just doesn't feel right for some reason, but once again thank you some much for trying. She's becoming my worst nightmare  Oh well, the quest goes on. I'm rapidly thinking the little madam went AWOL on census day!!

There is another one aged 16 living in Sneinton with her 17 yr old sister Clara .Both born Nottingham.
Another Elizabeth Smith aged 16 born Sutton- a few villages away from Caunton- living as a domestic servant in Newark with a Smith family.

I've tried the one in Sneinton, but again I don't think that's her as it mentions her sister Clara, as far as I can tell there was never a Clara in the family and I don't think Eliza worked in the lace mnfr trade.

Oh well, I think we'll have to draw a line under this one, but many thanks to everyone who's painstakingly searched for her.
