Is this it ?

GILL Eliza Radford 7b 328
GUNN Samuel Radford 7b 328
HORNE William Radford 7b 328
Keeling Emma Radford 7b 328


If the above is correct couple then You might have to recheck her birthdate ( she would only be 13 if born 1853 )

Have you got a birth cert for one of the children? This would give her maiden name.

What surname did you look for when searching for Emma's birth ?

Also, where does your info come from re : place of birth ?

That's why I couldn't understand why you said you'd searched for Emma's birth - no surname !


Also Samuel appears to be born Middlesborough and Helenor in Sussex ...not Guisborough !

Why do you think that Helenor was born in Guisborough ?

GUNN Eleanor Cuckfield 2b 147


Registration district covers birth for Horsted Keynes


Or is this the wrong family in 1881

Which one of their children is your grandmother/grandfather? You need to buy that birth cert and Emma's maiden name will be listed.

Can only repeat the advice already given
Buy your grandparent's birth certificate to check Mother's name.
