Could someone please help,

I am looking for the birth registration for a
Margaret Ann Downey born abt 1878 Bradford, Yorkshire

I have searched under every similar name I can think of from 1875 to 1880 and cannot seem to find anything.

It is not the one registered June quarter 1878 I ordered that it was wrong.

I am completely baffled and hope a fresh pair of eyes would help.
Sue

have you found her on the 1881 census or later.

1891?

Jim yes that 1891 census is right and that is my lot I have both her sister's birth and marriage certs but can find no other trace of her.
