Hi Terry,
I did some searches on
ancestry.com. If you provide more
information (like Lavinia's married name) - I may be able to find a
little more info. I searched for Alice Carpenter and there are alot of
them in the England censuses. And she may show up in the US censuses
(but a location of where she lived would help there). Is Lavinia's
maiden name Carpenter?

In the UK 1891 England Census, London, Chelsea, North, Distrist 18:
Henry Carpenter age 36 with a wife Alice age 26, with a daughter Alice
age 6, and a son Albert age 1. - don't know if relevant. (but wife
Alice would have same birth year of 1865)
**** In the UK 1891 England Census, London, Newington St Mary, St Peter
Walworth, District 36, there is a William Carpenter age 26, wife Alice
age 25, and son William age 1. ***********
There is a Lavinia Carpenter, age 6 daughter born in Surrey, Godalming
in the 1891 England Census. Parents are Elijah and Jane. Brother of
William and another brother Abel. - probably not relevant.

Does anyone have anything on Lavinia Carpenter age 5 on the 1901
English Census. Lavinia is my grandmother on my father's side of the family. She was
born in Bristol England. All I know is that she may have had two sisters, Amelia ( 2
in1901), Alice (11 in 1901) Sarah (2 in 1901) and William ( 3 in 1901). Her parents were
William Henry and Alice (aged 34 and 36 in 1901).
If any body can help me , I will be very grateful.
Terry
