Wilhelmina Smart
« on: Saturday 07 June 14 18:33 BST (UK) »
I have recently received some information from Liverpool Central Library about Wilhelmina.   The religious creed register shows that she was admitted from 2 Auson Terrace in February 1883, then in 1885 she was shows on the Parish of Liverpool Industrial Schools register until 1886.   Her mother, Ann was deceased.   I'm not sure, but I think she was staying with someone called May Porrell (Powell), 6 Boneded Street ?,
Would this be a foster parent?   I don't know when her mother died as I haven't been able to find a death for her and have been unable to find either Wilhelmina or her mother in the 1881 census.
Any comments would be appreciated.
Regards

Hi,

Which census do you have Wilhelmina living with May Powell?

Hi, I'm trying to find out where Wilhelmina wa between her birth in 1876 and 1885 when I think she was admitted to kirkdale industrial school.   The religious creed register is dated 1883 and that is where May Powells name appears.

ok here goes, this is what I have found so far (hope it makes sense)

In 1881 all I could find was a Caroline Lucas living with her daughter Wilhelmina Lucas. Bit of a long shot I know, but I decided to see if I could find a death for Caroline. I did, she died in 1885, what was her address 2 ANSON TERRACE, I think there is some connection here. What do you think?
