Hi guys, Can anyone help? I am trying to find out where my gr gr nan was wrking when she fell pregnant with my gr nan in Jun/July 1901. I know she gave birth in Feb 1902 at 43 Upcerne Road, that her name was Louisa Deadman and that she was working as a Domestic Servant. I can't find her on the 1901 census though Thanks in advance for any help Cheers Leila

Have you tried under other spellings - Dedman perhaps.

Hi guys, Upcerne Road is in London. I think she was born 1874 in Kent and I have looked under Dedman and can only find a possible match on the 1891 census Cheers Leila
