Emily Sophia James was born in 1852 and in the 1881 census her mother is Maria Greenland (Second marriage).
Are Emily and her mother Maria (James?) together in 1861 please?

Many thanks,
Frances

Frances,

Can you post the 1881 details please.

Not yet found a marriage for Maria James to Greenland?

Yes Glitter Baby, Emily and her mother were born Frome but there was another child born in Stroud in 1858, also a visitor in 1861 but on his own.
I think you may well have the rest of the family Poolie Girl. If Hannah M is Maria that would explain why I have not found her marriage to Mr James (presumably dead by '61?)
Thank you all. Now I have more names to work with.

Sorry Margaret I have been away from the computer and did not see your additions to my previous thread. Thank you for them - belatedly.
Thanks again Poolie Girl for Louisa.
It all seems to be coming together now, and you giving me Hannah Maria Yeats marrying John James explains why Francis William is with the Yeats family in 1861.

I'm happy I was able to help, Frances, but I have to say, you really ought to check your previous thread before starting a new one. You caused a lot of duplication of info that had previously been found.
