Cannot find her anywhere after the 1881 census

1911 Eliza is a Widow and says had 2 children and both died

William George the other child born 1883 in Southsea died 1903 in Southsea


Any ideas thanks

Well, she's alive and with Mum in 1881: RG11 piece 264 folio 62 page 15

Mum is a Grocer, no sign of Dad and little Gerty is 2 months old.

Ooh, Eliza's mum Elizabeth Wallis, widow is there, and a sister whose name I can't read!

[vallee]

oops sorry I meant cannot find her after the 1881 census sorry
That daughters name is Rebecca
Elizas husband William is a Butler at another address in 1881

[Phoenix]

I wonder if she died as a baby and slipped through the net? Unless she stayed behind with relatives when the family moved to Portsmouth, there's no sign of her death on Freebmd.

I leave it alone for months then have another look for her as I cannot have loose ends.
Thanks Phoenix .
