You are most likely correct and you have probably found her as her husband George Green came from Headless cross Worcester. So this is great news for me, many thanks for that.
I wonder if you could possibly help with the rest--
George and and Alice are only married for a few years, after having 2 children the split and the children are dumped in a home before being rescued by some aunt, but i think i may have found George in 1901 working as a Railway labourer in Birmingham  ( one of only 2 George Greens born in Worcester correct age )---But Alice disappears off the the planet, i know she left him, but where she went and maybe who with i cant find a definete trace anywhere

Thanks again

Nigel Green

Sorry Nigel, I could find no trace of her in the 1901 census. Could she have been dead by then?

Alternatively, she may have remarried. I ran a search for all ALICE MARY with an age 33-35, boen in Worcester. It only found one:

ALICE MARY CHARLES, Aged 34, B: Worcester, living in Kings Norton in 1901.

Maybe she had remarried a Mr Charles?

Hi Nigel,
I've found your Alice on the 1871:
Worcester, St. Peter.
43 John St.
Jane Barnett   H  W  27         Gloveress     Herefordshire, Bosbury
John H. Barnett       14         Moulder                 Do           Bosbury
Annie E. Barnett       12          Scholar                 Do           Ledbury
James Barnett           6               Do                    Do           Ledbury
Alice M. Barnett         3               Do             Worcestershire, Worcester
Kate Barnett             2mth                                   Do                    Do
RG10/3052   Folio 151   Page 26

So now you know for sure that Jane was a widow in 1871. I
I have never seen "gloveress" as an occupation, have you? I do know that Worcester was the glove capital of the UK though.
Hope this helps,
How's your weather?
Cheers, India in a sunny California ;D
