Thanks so much for your help Betty, I really appreciate it! Maybe she really did die in Ireland, although I have no evidence that the family ever went there. |

I have nudged this post as I spent most of last night/morning trying to find the death of this child, found the birth on SP but not the death. Maybe someone can help because I was stumped, I tried every which way but nothing.. Betty |

Yes Woody. Her parents married on 10/3/1886 in North Leith. The only evidence of this child is her birth certificate- she does not appear on any Scottish or English census or in any English BMD after this date, If any one else would like to have a look, her parents are Charles George Winterton born 1859 Cambridge and Mary Jane Williamson born 1864 either Scalloway Shetland or Orkney. As she was my father's half sister I know there were no other siblings - my father always told me that mother and daughter both 'drowned in Ireland'- that certainly was not the case with the mother as she died in London in 1897. Thanks Michael |

The 1886 one might also be correct if there was an earlier child by the same name - it was common practice to name a baby after a deceased sibling. However, what makes you think she died? Is it because you can't find her on the 1891 census - did you check grandparents? |

Thanks Matthew. I have her birth certificate and she was born on 2/5/1887 in South Leith - she may have died in infancy , but 1886 is a little early! |

On Scotlands People, there is one match for a Jane Winterton's death in 1886 in Edinburgh but this is only when soundex is applied so her last name may have been spelt incorrectly. Hope this helps! Matthew |

Are those dates correct as nothing showing on ScotlandsPeople. Do you mean 1987? If so you need to contact the General Register Office for Scotland. Maureen |
