Ive just been looking for her Di.
I think you are right with the census, I hadnt seen the 1851 mind. The 1861 it looks like Myra is 10 though? So that would be right.

I think this might be the marriages though,

That looks great, Jo! :grin:

dianel · Post by **dianel** » Sat Oct 02, 2010 11:32 pm

You're right, Jo, it is 10 in the '61. What you reckon, good enough to enter on BCC?

grangers14 · Post by **grangers14** » Sun Oct 03, 2010 11:53 am

It looks right to me Di.

There are a couple of births of Mira/Myra I will check them out in a little while and see if we can rule them out.

Ive been looking.

1. Louisa Ellen Myra Smith
England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
residence: North Harborne, Stafford, England
parents: Jarvis Smith, Louisa Smith

record title: England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
name: Louisa Ellen Myra Smith
gender: Female
baptism/christening date: 15 Jan 1854
baptism/christening place: North Harborne, Stafford, England
father's name: Jarvis Smith
mother's name: Louisa Smith
indexing project (batch) number: I01086-1
system origin: England-EASy
source film number: 6085662

I can see Jarvis on the 1861 census.
So not the one we looked at.
Mira Ann Smith 1849

1. Myra Anne Smith
England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
residence: Wolverhampton, Stafford, England
parents: John Smith, Anne

record title: England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975
name: Myra Anne Smith
gender: Female
baptism/christening date: 12 Jan 1851
baptism/christening place: St. Mary's, Wolverhampton, Stafford, England
father's name: John Smith
mother's name: Anne
indexing project (batch) number: C01981-5
system origin: England-EASy
source film number: 1040909

I think this one is with parents John and Ann in Tunstall 1861. So not that one.

I really think it is may be add and put a note?
See what NL thinks and anyone else if your reading?
