Member Since: June 2004 Posts: 123 Send Message	1881 census shows her as one year younger than edward when they are in digs together and may be wrong, so 1891 census entry for her birth date.( b 1853) 1901 shows her as a year older ( b 1853 ) if the same person. ? Born 1853 seems OK.

	Birth cert for one of the children will give mothers maiden name to confirm, though that looks pretty certain Births Dec 1885 (>99%) Child Annie Meria Cannock 6b 469 Births Mar 1888 (>99%) CHILD Elizabeth Celeste Cannock 6b 476 Not finding them in 1911 yet??
