1911 original has Co Wicklow as Edith's birthplace


If this is Nellie May's birth then her mother's maiden name would be on the birth certificate

1911 census image for the above census states,

Edith Kathleen bn Co Wicklow Ireland

and ditto for,
Nellie May, ?

Yes Rose a wild guess there a few others that could just scrape in.

Did Nellie marry?

Do you have a copy of Nellie's marriage cert?

What does her death cert say about her birthplace?

Jacqueline

Do you know if Nellie had any siblings?

If she didn't, one has to consider that she may not have been the natural child of George and his 'wife'

just a note on the 1911 census

for George, it says born St Pancras, English
for Edith, it says born Ireland, Co Wicklow, Irish

then the birthlaces for the next three people are dashes and all say English ...
since one of those three is George's brother Edward John, I think the dashes actually refer to Pancras


so this is George's household in 1881

Name: George Joyce
Age: 4
Estimated birth year: abt 1877
Relationship to Head: Son
Father: Edwin J. Joyce
Mother: Ellen Joyce
Gender: Male
Where born: St Pancras, Middlesex, England
Occupation: Scholar

Civil Parish: St Pancras
County/Island: London
Street address: 40 Red Hill St
Registration district: Pancras
Sub registration district: Regents Park

Edwin J. Joyce 40
Ellen Joyce 38
Richard Joyce 18
Edwin Joyce 15 born Marylebone > 44 in 1911
Susan Joyce 13
Albert Joyce 11
Eliza Joyce 7
George Joyce 4
Alice Joyce 1


Births Mar 1856
JOYCE Edward John Marylebone 1a 430

Marriages Dec 1862
Joyce Edwin John
Rodel Ellen Matilda Marylebone 1a 757

Edward, Edwin, Edmund were often treated as interchangeable


in 1901, George is in the household of his married sister Susan in St Pancras

Charles Morris 35
Susan Morris 32
William Morris 11
Ellen Morris 8
Charles Morris 6
Alice Morris 3
Thomas Morris 2
> George Joyce 22
Charles Ellis 20
Ellen Poulton 19


given that George's mother was Ellen, I wonder whether Nellie was really Ellen too?

or yes, the other possibility, that she was Edith's child before George

but they claim married 8 years when Nellie is only 4, so even if they weren't married it would seem she is likely a child of their union

it seems quite unlikely that George would have gone to Ireland and married there

As previously mooted, she may not have been their natural child
