Thanks everyone .. this is an eldest child who was born before marriage and I have been looking for. I couldn't understand why the child was not with the mother but perhaps she was in service and couldn't keep the child with her.

Thanks again

I HAVE HAD A LOOK, AND THINK THE WORD IS 'NURSING' MAYBE MARGARET COFFEY WAS ACTING LIKE A CHILDREN'S NURSE?

1891 Census
..............................................

**Elizabeth Richards
.. born 1891
.. Haverfordwest, Haverfordwest

...............................................

Shown on census in first household on page .. COFFEY

Elizabeth Ann Richards .. 5 (days) ?

Can anybody read what it says in the 'Relation to head of Family' column .. it doesn't look quite like 'Visiting' and strange they have 2 unrelated babies ?

Thanks in advance.

Melanie
