I have a Mary Ringrose on the 1901 census it says she was born Countesthorpe Leicester, on the 1891 she was born Bruntingthorpe Leicester on the 1881 census she was born Bruntingthorpe. I know it is the same person because she is living with husband William and family, would these two places be near each other? Sue...............

I've lived in Countesthorpe all my life. The bakers used to be called Ringroses, it closed about 20 years ago and is now an indian restaurant.
