Member Since: October 2006 Posts: 116 Send Message	Ellen Emily James was the daughter of Frederick and Ellen James. She was born circa 1887 in Covent Garden London. Her elder brother was Frederick James and she had 8 other siblings. I would be interested to find out when she died or if she ever married. Could anyone help me with any information please. Regards

	Here is her birth registration to begin with: Births Dec 1886 (>99%) James Ellen Emily Strand 1b 657
	Researching: Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.

Member Since: October 2006 Posts: 116 Send Message	Thank you everyone. Mike that is quite interesting because I seem to remember my mother telling me she was evacuated to her aunt Ellen (or Nell as they called her) and she lived in Sussex. I will have to check it with her and see if this jogs her memory ie the husbands name. Fingers crossed.

Member Since: October 2006 Posts: 116 Send Message	Gosh does that mean that 3 children died?
Member Since: October 2006 Posts: 116 Send Message	Ryswick23	Report	29 Dec 2010 18:09
Member Since: October 2006 Posts: 116 Send Message	I knew there were 9 children in total and one boy called John died but I wasnt aware there were anymore who died. I have never seen any others listed on earlier census.
Member Since: December 2004 Posts: 558 Send Message	cagsie	Report	29 Dec 2010 18:11
	it would mean they died as infants, being born and deceased inbetween the census years my grandmother was one of 12, but my mum only knew of 5 aunties/uncles

Member Since: October 2006 Posts: 116 Send Message	Sorry if I seem a bit thick but does this mean Edwin Brown and Amelia Wood were witnesses? I am really shocked to see they may have married in Dorchester - how curious
