Matt - now that Linda has transfered her finds, don't forget to delete the original thread. Just delete the first post and the whole lot will disappear.

It is unfortunate that she was not with her parents on the 1911 census

If you order her birth certificate from the GRO
http://www.gro.gov.uk/ £9.25 it will give you the parents names

If you can get to the records office in Sheffield you could try looking for her baptism. The census says she was born in Carbrook so you could try the nearest church
