Sandra, sorry I missed the death of Alice Virgo. I too followed Timms and dismissed her. I'll have a rethink!!!

Hello Sandra and Johnhood,
Thanks for the suggestions.  I will append the 1911 census, which shows the details of
Alice P's place of birth.  I will also append the marriage cert. on another post as it is
seeminly too big to add.

Regards

Jill in Oz

Thanks for confirmation of marriage details Jill.  Unfortunately you need to remove the 1911 census, it is not allowed on Rootschat due to copyright. If you don't remove it, a moderator will do it for you.

Regards
Sandra

Sorry about the census, I hope I have removed it. It is for Hove, Sussex and shows a 16 year old
Alice Burleigh, a Nursemaid and domestic worker, born London Bermondsey, working for Frank
Derbyshire, a Boarding House Keeper. No more to go on sadly.

I noticed the housemaid listed above Alice has her birth place listed as "Fife Cupar Angus" which makes me wonder how accurate the information is for the staff.

Thanks Jacquie,  The 1911 census was filled in by the householder, who in this instance had been
born in London.  I think he should have Bermondsey right, but probably wouldn't have a clue
about Scotland.  Alice Phyllis is a real problem. No birth, no death and nothing in the 1939
census either.  I have sent for a Death Cert. for a Herbert born 1892 but am not holding my
breath hoping for answers on what happened to him.  No Alice deaths seem to match in England
and Wales.

As discussed I did send for the only Herbert Hamilton Civil Death Record in England which
fitted the right age for my Herbert, and was in an area (Fulham) where he may well have
lived but once again it was not my Herbert. Yet another dead end.  I do think he migrated
somewhere with his wife Alice Phyllis but so far no real links.  Thanks everyone for your
suggestions and contributions.
