Doh !

I read Robert as her father/stepfather, but it seems HE was her half brother.

The fact that she had a half brother suggests her mother re-married so Eveline was probably born under her mother's previous name.

Can you give us the parents names on 1871 census please.

What is her Father's name from the marriage certificate?
Thanks

My 2 x great grandmother's early life and parents are a mystery to me. She was Eveline Cundall born abt. 1852 in Parston Yorkshire. On the 1871 Census she appears to be living with her half-brother and family as a servant on their farm in Thornton Yorkshire. Shortly after in 1871 she married my 2 x great grandfather Charles Henry Johnson as 'Emmeline' Cundall and appears with him and their family on the 1881 Census as 'Caroline'. She died in 1884. I can find no record of her birth nor find her on the 1861 Census despite using variations on her name. I might add that I have my great grandfather's birth certificate which is where I learnt Eveline's name and on her and Charles' marriage certificate there is no father entered for Eveline.

I would very much appreciate any help or advice. Thank you.

Sue
