That was the only idea my uncle could think maybe could fit due to the other births in India, anything is worth a try as so stuck and my uncle is the only Holden related to Mc Nabb alive and his memory is poor, I was thinking Scotland and the Trossachs near Killin Loch Tay area home of Mac Nabb or From Cork Eire which was once told to me by my mother (who died in 1995)
But all searches come to nothing as I tried BMD and Census records in all areas and feel so lost as to what to do next.
She has to be some place. can anyone advise or help.

Just because they were born or married in India does not mean they were of the ethnic race...I think it is obvious by the names

Its sounds as though she did marry below what her father thought was right. He was a manufacturer, his son in law a gardener? You may be able to find out where and what he manufactured in hemel hempsted in the way of dresser brushes. A dresser brush is what we would call a dressing table set ( dont have them these days)

She was a paper folder in the mils - Dickinsons Mill possibly - not sure when that was founded, but it was a big paper manufacturer just outside Boxmoor
