Subject: [CHALLENGER] Rosina & Charlotte Challenger
Hi List,
Has this list been a bit quiet recently or do I have a problem my end??
Anyway, to go back to my subject header:-
Has anyone any information on Rosina Challenger who was born 17th June
1870
at King Street, Brynmawr? I received a copy of her birth certificate
today
and while I now know where she fits on my tree I don't seem to be able to
find her after the 1871 Census. I can't find a marriage or death that
might
fit her on FreeBMD and it's not helped by the fact that her mother wasn't
at
the same address as Rosina in 1871.
When her errant parent did eventually marry in 1877 Rosina doesn't appear
as
part of that family in 1881, or on later census. She was not with her
grandmother in 1881 either. Any suggestions as to where she may be or
can
anyone on her claim her please?
As you can see I am trying to tie up loose ends so, would anyone happen to
know where/when or if Charlotte Challenger married? She's on the 71
census
at home, on the 81 living with her sister, brother in law & family and in
91
appears to be a barmaid in Ebbw Vale but again I don't seem to be able to
marry her off or kill her off. She was born in 1863 or 1865 and while the
81 & 91 census state place of birth Brynmawr her birth may have been
within
the Aberystruth district. Again, any takers for Charlotte, please?
Many thanks
Louise
