Mary Louisa Kate JONES - born Chippenham 1864
« on: Thursday 26 January 23 22:14 GMT (UK) »
When this birth was registered the Registration District is given as "OF CHIPPENHAM" on the GRO Index - what does the "OF" mean?
Mary Louisa Kate was the daughter of David JONES and Sarah ELLY who were married in Bath in 1860 and appear on the Chippenham Census of 1861.  By 1971 they were living in Gloucester but had two children born in Bristol in 1865 and 1867.  I can find no trace of Mary Louisa Kate after her birth.  There is a death of a young Mary JONES in "OF CHIPPENHAM" registered in the Dec qrt 1865 but the birth of a Sarah Maria JONES was registered in Bristol (mmn ELLY)in the Sept qrt 1865 makes this seems unlikely. Can anyone help? Thank you.

The full GRO index has no such annotation - if you have Ancestry access - here's the link

The 1841 census has a different Elly family living in Berkeley near Stroud.
Parents James and Ann with a daughter Sarah Eley born 1939.
In the 1861 census, this Sarah was a Milliner on the Isle of White and as Sarah Anne Eley.

This will be your Sarah and registered in Bath, as the other would be registered in Stroud.
