Where is Eleanor in 1921?
« on: Thursday 13 March 25 16:03 GMT (UK) »
Eleanor Davison Macnay
born 1904 New Brancepeth, Durham
parents Joseph Macnay and Eleanor Wilkinson

1911 census Eleanor is living with parents and siblings
21 Eshwood Street, New Brancepeth

1930 Eleanor marries John S Storey

I'm trying to find Eleanor on 1921 census - she is not with her family

Thankyou

Take a look at Nellie ‘Marnay’ aged 17 in Wakefield. Check the original!

WOW thankyou very much

Sarah Howe (nee Macnay) is Eleanor's aunt

I think in time I would have found her when I tried to find Sarah Macnay in 1921  :)

She is with her husband at 'Brancepeth', Bigby Road, Brigg, Lincolnshire.

On FindMyPast her name is transcribed as Eleana Stone. The writing on the original is awful.

final query - when did Eleanor die?
1939 states dob as 14 January 1904
husband John Sidney Storey died 1980 Northallerton

don't think ancestry hints are my Eleanor:

Eleanor D Armstrong m John L Storey 1900 Tynemouth
John L Storey died 1940 Northumberland Central
Eleanor D Storey married Robert A Storey (John's brother)
Eleanor D Storey died 1949
