I'm getting nowhere fast!

Hi

I have posted a bit about this lot many moons ago, but this week I received a birth cert that I thought would help move things on but I'm even more lost than ever.

Birth cert is Jane Elizabeth Bryant b. 1875 Pancras.  Father Henry Bryant, Timber Porter and mother Sarah Bryant formerly Ayres (thats what it looks like).

I have never been able to find Jane Elizabeth on any census in the past, but I didn;t know her mothers name, just her fathers.  the fathers name and occupation matches the marriage I have for her in 1895.  She married George Frederick Verrier.  (although I have recently spotted her on the 1911).

I cant find a marriage for Henry Bryant and Sarah Ayres and I cant find a definite trace of any of them any census - as for the daughter, Jane Elizabeth -she seems to disappear until she marries.

I wonder if anyone else would be willing to take a look.

This is my previous posting for information, just so there is no duplication of effort

Thanks for looking mc8 - its all a bit of a mystery!!

Lizdb - I did see that - the mother surname on the cert definitely doesn't look like Naish, but it did make me wonder if maybe she'd been married before etc.  Did try and find an Ayres/Naish marriage to be followed by the Naish/Bryant one, but I didn't get anywhere with that either!!

This might be a sighting of her in 1891 RG12 piece 20 folio 66 page 4

A little old but the rest fits. I can't check this as Findmypast won't let me see the image at the moment.

I'm having a go at attaching a scan of the mothers maiden name - not done this before so I'm not sure how it works!!
