Hi, This MAY be her birth registration, as it ties in with her age being one on the census. If you order the cert it will give both parents names. Name: Sarah Ann Stevens Year of Registration: 1860 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar District: Leighton Buzzard County: Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire Volume: 3b Page: 442 Do you have a marriage for her? If so that would confirm the fathers name. |

Why do you think they aren't her parents? I have a relative who lived with her unmarried mother and father and grandparents, until her parents got married, then parents moved away and had lots more children, but the first child stayed with grandparents. Liz |
