Thanks Farside for this information

We still haven't got Ann Firkin in 1851.
I think we can discount the fact that Ann Roberts is Ann Firkin born 1847 Penkridge,Staffs.

Yes we definitely can. Well we know who her parents were

[dudleytaylor]

We know that her parents were Jeremiah Firkin 1804 - 1855 and , Sarah Wagstaff 1804 We have their marriage from family search

We know that her grandparents possibly are William Firkin 1765 and Martha Whitehouse 1766-1847

Now we have to prove it

We have proved the parents , because we have their marriage ,the Baptism, and from Anns marriage we know Mary was her sister as she was the witness on marriage .

[dudleytaylor]

I will see if I can find 41 census. We will not find Ann in 41 census she was not born . So i have to look for 51 .

[Rob]

She gets married in 1869 to George Smallwood but where is she in 1851 and 1861?
Back to the original question.

[dudleytaylor]

cannot find find Ann on 51 census .
