If Rebecca was giving birth around 1900, she must have been born a lot later than 1845 Reg

So Maude's birth was not registered? Or could it have been registered under a name other than Kilbey? Have you found a baptism record for her? Jill

reggie thought if we follow rebecca's one may have a child and call her rebecca we know it is a long shot but no other allertons in the same area and this family lived about 20 min walk from kilbey's jenny

Jenny, I'm not doubting your information. What I'm doubting is, if your gr-nan wasn't registered until her death, it's only hearsay that she was born in 1900. People can always be out a couple of years when giving ages. Ozi.

This is a real conundrum. I can't find a Maud* with mother Reb* that suits. I wonder if she left the area to have Maude or if Maude is living with relatives?

How do you know that the John Kilbey married to Lavinia is Maude's father? You have mentioned that the marriage cert said he was a timber merchant but Lavinia's husband is an insurance agent. Are you certain that Maude didn't just make up a father for herself when she was married as she didn't like to look illegitimate? There has been a thread about this and it seems the most common method was for the person to take their own surname add John and state he was dead and give him a profession.
