Thank you but it does not look as though that is the right one as it does not have Catherine's brothers who are on the 1891 census listed.

Maybe I should try to find her birth record to narrow down her parents names?

Thank you for your replies - but do not think we have found the right one. In the 1891 census, her mother is Ann or Annie and her occupation is a hawker.

On the 1891 census, there is no father listed - although Ann does come from Ireland as does Michael (Catherine's eldest brother on the 1891 census)

I have not even been able to find a birth reference for Catherine, so any help is much appreciated.

Regards

Hello,

I have just looked on familysearch.org and can't seem to find her - can anyone else please look to see if they can find her?
