Hi Marie
Please can you confirm if the Alice Mary Kate Collier (Collins) Street...........i found in the 1911 census, with her Grandparents Eli and Kate, is your Grt Grandmother?

If it is correct............her Mother was Alice Maud Street born 1886.

The information from the 1911 census that pricklyholly posted is the correct person by the looks of it.

my great grandma is showing as alice mary kate collins street b:1906 who is grandaughter living with head of house earl street. typing error on the collins though as should be collier.

I now know that this alice had no fathers name on the birth cert just mothers name of alice maud street. alice maud and William Collier who were her parents never married but alice mary kate did use the surname of both parents collier-street.

im guessing that as my gt gt grandma who i now understand is alice maud street b: 1886 died in 1907, she could have died giving birth to alice mary kate. also this explains why alice mary kate is living with eli her grand father.

Marie,

Alice Mary Kate was born in 1905:

Births Sep 1905
STREET Alice Mary K C Wandsworth 1d 687

Certificates would really help.

Apologies if this has been posted, and I've missed it:

London, England, Births and Baptisms, 1813-1906

Name: Alice Mary Rate Collier Street (Rate = Kate)
Record Type: Baptism
Birth Date: 10 Jul 1905
Baptism Date: 23 Aug 1905
Mother's name: Alice Street
Parish or Poor Law Union: Summers Town
Borough: Wandsworth

Although there's no father's name, it has occupation Labourer.

The address looks like 30 Fon street.

Phew!!!

At least we now agree that Alice Mary Street born 1866/1867 Richmond, Surrey is NOT your Grt Grt Grandmother!

It seems that Alice Maud Street did not die giving birth to her daughter "Alice Mary Kate Collier Street" .....because she was born in 1905 and it seems her Mother (Alice Maud Street) died in 1907.

.Alice Maud Streets death cert would confirm the above information.

Your grandmother had siblings. Are any of them still alive to help?

Actually, best stick to certs. We've gone from looking for an Alice MARY Street born 1867 to a Alice MAUD Street born 1886. This is a good example that certs are very important.

Marie,

Several people have an Alice Street born 1905 in Streatham on this site. Are you in contact with them?

Alice Maud Street and William Collier were never married, their daughter was my grandmother - Alice was the daughter of Eli Street and Kate Isabella Mills. Will forward family tree to you Marie.

Have amazingly made contact with Brenda - Thanks to all for your help.

If anyone can find Kate Isabella Street (previously Mills) in the 1911 census who was married to Eli Street that would be great to find all details on it.

Kate Isabella is sometimes known as Isabella b:1861 Wandsworth Area
