(Unless she was staying at grans and was mis-recorded there as niece, and her parents listed her at their own place? Doubt it though)

Could be this birth:

What could of happened, was she was staying with her grandparents but her parents still added her to their census form

jax

Edit- It was stewart Brown who filled the form in so she was a neice to him

Researching:
Nothing much

There is another May Clegg born 1906 with parents of Samuel and Catherine so I would think that is her birth MC

Researching:
Nothing much

Right That seems likely I did notice Stewart Signed

Sorted

I've looked for births also marriages to see if a Brown or Woodhouse married a Clegg but found nothing
