Thank you Chrissie Smiff - I knew it must be one or the other, I guess those towns are very close to each other.

Petersfield district covers a lot of places including Petersfield and Sheet.

Thanks Merry. Same family (I'm checking my tree with a relative's) - I have date of marriage for Seth Cook and Eliza Adams as 23 Aug 1870, and relative has 23 Aug 1874 in Petersfield District.

I am thinking I am wrong.

I have Eliza Adams (Seths wife) as being born 1853, Liss, Hants, and relative has 1855 in Liss Hants.

Who is right in this instance?

Chrissie - I am jood (Judy) - you may know me from other threads

There's only one registration for an Eliza Adams, but reg wasn't compulsory then, so to be certain, you would have to determine her dob another way (ie marriage cert >>> father's name>>>> age on earlier census>>> baptism etc


Births Mar 1855
Adams Eliza Petersfield 2c 114

Daniel and his wife were in Sheet in 1891, so it's probably more likely they died there than Petersfield, unless they moved in with family or ended up in the workhouse etc. Others registered on the same page as daniel and Sally were all living in villages on the previous census (those I could find!) rather than in Petersfield.
