Census information only on this lady. 1911 Census gives her name.Daughter's birth certificate (1912) also give correct name but then cannot find any information. Tried freebmd, genes search etc. etc. Born in Reading 1888 (according to census), lived in Leicestershire around 1909-1912.

Sorry, but could you clarify what you want us to look up? Do you mean you can find her on census but nowhere else? Is Fyfield maiden or married name?

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it

These are the only female births registered in 1912 with mother's name of Fyfield:

Births Mar 1912 (>99%)
Wigham Violet L S Fyfield Newcastle T. 10b 59
Births Jun 1912 (>99%)
Ball Dorothy E Fyfield E.Preston 2b 585

Can't find a Georgina Fyfield born 1888 on any census?

The only information I have is the 1911 census where she is listed as born in Reading, Berks. She had 3 children, her first was a son in 1909, then a daughter 1911 in Leicestershire. Her name is on son Frederick's birth certificate as Steward formerly Fyfield. Daughter born in 1912 in Leicester City, same information Steward formerly Fyfield. Her husband's name was Ernest Steward and I have information on him after 1912. Daughter did not have contact with mother.

1911 Census information is what I have but nothing else. So Georgina Fyfield is only listed between 1909 and 1912 when her daughter Winifred was born in Leicester. After and before I have drawn a blank so I would appreciate any help or tips on where to look now.

Many thanks by the way for your prompt replies.

Do you know when she died, and under what name?
Thanks

I have absolutely no information regarding Winifred Steward's mother other than previously stated. It's like she only existed for the 1909-1912 years!

Winifred, from a very young child, lived with another family who had no contact with either mother or father, so I can't even ask descendants. I think perhaps Georgina Fyfield was probably not her real name? I am new to this so I guess this may happen a lot.

GreatArtuin - these mysteries do happen, and we like to try to get to the bottom of them!

I'm struggling to find any record of a marriage for an Ernest Steward in the given timescale.

I am also struggling with this one, hence my request for help. I am not sure what other avenues I have open to me.

I know how good you guys/gals are now, but I still require help on this one. What options do I have open to me if the mother gave a false name?

Mke
if they never married then we should be able to find her in census or BMD under Fyfield.
