bit of a long shot, but if you were able to find school records that would tell you an address and the adult, sorry I can;t think of what else to do - she'd be to young to be on the electoral role (and besides women didn;t get the vote till 1918 anyway) sorry! |

I don't see how you can. If she had stayed with the ''foster family'' until after the 1911 census then you would have to wait until 2012, but is she was only away from her mum between the census returns I don't know how you could do it? Do you think she was living with a family or in an institution? If the latter, then if you knew where there might be a chance, I suppose. Merry |
