I've looked at GR records and it's the 1881 census that is there with her birth year given as 1870

You could c/p the preview of what your are seeing

She is on the Genes Search page, as I put in my OP. I know you're all being helpful, and thank you very much, but please could someone with a Genes platinum sub have a look.

Census ages were often incorrect by 1/2 years. It looks like she was born after the 1871 census

Please would someone with a full Genes subscription look at the details of the 1871 census for the above.

She is not with her parents Thomas and Elizabeth, in Merthyr, but may be with another relative. On later censuses she is shown as aged 11, 21 etc. so I would expect her to be aged 1 in 1871.

I have looked at the Genes Search page and there are several children of that name, but only one is aged 1 - all the rest are 0.

Thank you very much.
