So sad
I'm not yet a week into my "lets kill off the undead" in my tree and it is so depressing.
I'm up to the B's. The family I'm looking at now had 13 children according to the 1911 census, of which only 4 had survived.
I had high hopes for one daughter, she "escaped" and got married in 1900. However by the 1901 census her husband was a widower. Lucy and her daughter died just after birth.
The family are complicated as Dad was illegitimate and he can't make up his mind whether to use his mother or father's surname for both him or his kids and both surnames have a heap of different spelling options just to make it more fun. They also had a 21yo daughter appear on the 1901 census and she too must have been illegitimate and so there are 3 names she might have been born under and I can't find any for the registration district she should have been registered at.
oh the joys of this hobby of ours.
