What is the source of your information, jard?
Have you got her birth cert, or found her on any censuses?
I cant see anyone fitting the bill on 1891 census.

Hi

The 1901 census has a 14 year old Lucy Taylor born Norfolk Norton which could be Norton Subcourse which is in the Loddon registration district.

Found this baptism in Norton

Lucy Mary Ann Taylor  b Oct 1886 is indeed the one.
She married Edward Batchelor Martin in 1908.
I now know her parents, Edward Taylor and Elizabeth Curtis Constance...thank you.

My information originaly came from the lady herself, quite a long while ago now, before she died. She was reluctant to say much at all at the time, and the family knowledge of her side  is quite limited.

She claimed she was one of about 22 children !!  but  her family know very little about them and nothing at all of her life, something I'm trying to change. Every piece of info I can get will help to do this. She has one remaining living child who is anxious to know something of her mothers life.
