There's a birth of a Myra Nicholls in 1868.

Scrub that - it looks as if she died aged 2. And it's Dudley, not Walsall. It looks as if someone in Dudley RD was trying desparately for a baby Myra.

Herbert Murchison has a wife Minnie in 1911, so Myra must have married Alexander Anson. I haven't managed to find that couple in 1911 yet to see whether it is the same Myra.

But, there is a Myra Nicholls born Tipton Staffs age 27 living in Walsall on the 1901 census, with a mother Hannah, and I'm guessing that this one is likely to be the one who got married in Walsall in 1903. I haven't managed to find anything about the one born 1867-8 yet.

There is a Sophia Mirabella Nicholls birth registered Oct-Dec 1867 in Walsall. In 1901 she is in Llanrhos, Caernarvonshire, Wales, and gets married to a John Johnson in Llandudno, Caernarvonshire, in 1909. Unfortunately FamilySearch doesn't show her father's name on the marriage transcription.

Oh, never mind - I've found Sophia on the 1891 English census and her mother is Ellen. Back to the drawing board...
