Seelig family

[seelig]

 Many moons ago I was married to a Seelig I have kept the name as I have children and there was no need to change it. I did start a family search but it seems that the family members who have now gone did not approve ...strange isn't it. Anyway here I am again I have found an EMMA SEELIG in the 1901 census at the age of 62 and it gives birthplace as Germany underneath British Subject. I believe she was sent out of the way to England mid nineteenth century and having had the child George Seelig she died a spinster.
 I have found a death EMMA ALINA SEELIG Dec Qu 1906 Uttoxeter age 68 birth year 1868   SORRY 1838     correction.... 6B 235 240..............When I did this before I am sure I discovered a will and where she was buried and these are two things I would like to find. Also how could I find her parents and date of birth,,,it would be amazing for my family to know where their roots have come from Thanks for your expert help

If she was single and born in Germany but a British subject then it's possible that her father was British.

George the Farmer is on 1911, but you will have to carry out the search for yourself (Rootschat/copright rules)

This post says born Frankfort but no guarantee that's correct-

Have you considered getting the son's marriage certificate(s) to see if he claims any Father?

An online tree claims Emma's parents were Joseph Seelig (born 1810 Dusseldorf) & Franziska Hatry (born 1814 Homborg) married 1838 Dusseldorf which ties in to these records-

Ancestry has her as Felig born in 1844, Frankfurt, in 1881,  and Selig born 1888 Germany in 1891 censuses.
