There are several Catherine Campbells born about the right time in Liverpool on the 1881 census. Could she be the Catherine C Campbell, daughter of Samuel and Julia? This is on the Family Search site.

Hi Tracey, No I don't - I only know that she had one daughter - my grandmother Teresa Rose Huntington in 1914. Not much use am I? It looks like there are quite a few options - am I right in thinking I'd have to get birth certs?

Do you think she was known by another name? Perhaps she used the name Catherine?

Hi , Both of those sound like they could be right! (On the 1891) - I'll try and look into those when I'm signed up to a few more sites, etc - there are so many places to look aren't there! You're all stars - thank you.

Thanks very much for the info - I can't seem to get any further than her birth or marriage on any of the sites I'm looking at - I'll try Constance. Thanks for your help! So quickly too.

Hi There you go, one birth Name: Campbell, Constantia Catherine Record Type: Births Quarter: March Year: 1878 District: Liverpool (1837-1924) County: Lancashire Volume: 8b Page: 1_6 the voulme and page reference isn't available on ancestry, maybe someone could double check it on freebmd or 1837 for you. You're right though, she doesn't seem to be anywhere else. Have you tried looking for Constance? Lou

Hello, I was wondering if any one could tell me why I can find my Great Grandmother's birth & marriage details on the freebmd link - but not on anything else, i.e. census records or local bmd sites? She had quite an unusual name - Constantia Catherine Campbell - and when married Constantia Huntington but I'm really struggling to find any more information. She was born in Birkenhead/Liverpool in March 1878 and married in 1903, I'd be really grateful for any info or how I can solve this puzzle! Thanks, Kate.
