Find Ancestors

On the 1901 Census it shows my great grandmother was Rosetta Ball born in1850 at Camberwell.
she was married to Gt Grandfather James Ball born 1860 Soho London and he was a photographer.
I am trying to find out what her maiden name was.

Have you traced her back through the census to give an idea of when she might have married?

A birth certificate of one of their children will give you Rosettas maiden name

Paley Charles Edward S Camberwell 1d 762
Tonnesen Hanna Andreas Camberwell 1d 762

Can not find a death between 1871 and 1881 for Tonnesen so perhaps she was not free to marry James Ball


Looks like it could be a Norwegian surname

Nudging to keep near the top of my threads

Tonnesen Harold Ackrill Camberwell 1d 787

Can't find a birth or a death for Hans. Do you know that she actually married James Ball as I can't find a marriage for them. Could she have just taken his name?
