Hi Louise Try to find the family in 1871, when the girl(s) is/are 2. Look for a birth in or about 1869. If there are twins, they should have the same or consecutive page number references. I was bedevilled by a twin who died, a subsequent daughter given the dead child's name, but not being registered, and the two girls never appearing on a census in the same household. I began to think I was going mad! Happy hunting Brenda
