Dorothy Gregory does not appear in anyone's tree on GR.......not even yours.
You need to include people in your tree in case anyone else is researching them and wishes to make contact
If you purchase Dorothy's birth cert, you will know her exact DOB, which will enable a search to be made for her death...........if she died after 1969.
When and where did you last see her?

Well my theory is wrong then -- if you have the birth cert for Violet then fine.
I did see the Jane and Henry Gregory and sons 1901 there is a Henry and Jane Gregory on the 1911 think she was Jane Didlick = Dec 1900
I also was looking at a Mary Jane Manford born St Martins 1875 then spotted a Davies / Manford child born 1914 Oswestry - Joseph F Davies -- which set me thinking ??
Exploring all the branches makes good family history research

hello again, info update that is the right violet may ( my grandmother) it is her sister dorothy and her mother jane i am trying to trace. thanks to argyllgran for the deaths i will look into the possible connections , but none of the ages match exactly , but this woman according to census records and the certificates i have seems not to know when she was born, i guess she lied because her first husband was 14yrs older and second was 8yrs younger.- yes mavis violet & dorothy,s mother was a roberts , there were 7 children . 4died as infants , 1 went to live with aunt & uncle when jane re-married and she kept the 2 youngest violet & dorothy thanks again to you all

Hi, Mavis -
Can I ask what makes you think Jane Roberts is wrong? Apart from no conclusive death for Henry?
This is my reasoning: For the 1901 census, that's the only Jane Gregory (in fact, the only Jane of any surname) who comes up on Ancestry with the same POB, and roughly approximate YOB as for Jane Davies in 1911 census.
If that's correct, then Arthur, in 1911, is the only Arthur Gregory who has the same YOB and POB as the one in 1901.
And if that's correct, then Jane and Sarah Roberts are the only sisters I could find in the right area, with matching YOB's, the right POB, and the same names as two women who married a Henry Gregory and a Henry Jones respectively.
But I'm open to persuasion!
And certainly, the marriage cert would save us all from heading off on possible wild goose chases.

Elizabeth have you got the birth cert of Violet May Gregory ??
birth reg as May Gregory Jun Q 1902 Ellesmere 6a 727
if not then you need to -- if you have then well and good - would give you mothers maiden name and father full name
I have a feeling mother is not Jane Roberts !!!
A copy of the marriage of Jane Gregory to Joseph Davies would give you her Father [ hopefully ]
would be nice to know if you do have Violet's birth cert.

Still haven't found Jane's death, nor what happened to Dorothy after 1911, but here's some info re Jane and her family! (At least, it might be her, but see Mavis's post below.) Here she is in 1901:
1901 England Census about Jane Gregory Name: Jane Gregory Age: 30 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1871 Relation: Wife Spouse's Name: Henry Gregory Gender: Female Where born: Ifton Heath, Shropshire, England Civil parish: Ellesmere Ecclesiastical parish: Ellesmere St Mary County/Island: Shropshire Country: England Street Address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Education: Employment status: Registration district: Ellesmere Sub-registration district: Ellesmere ED, institution, or vessel: 2 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 123 Piece: 2549 Folio: 31 Page Number: 19 Household Members: Name Age Henry Gregory 40 Jane Gregory 30 Stephen Gregory 1 Arthur E Gregory 2 Months
But the only death of a Henry Gregory I can find in Ellesmere district at the right time is this one, who is a lot older than stated in 1901. Perhaps he was making himself seem younger for a young wife, Patchem?!
Deaths Dec 1907 (>99%) Gregory Henry 67 Ellesmere 6a 426
Can't find a convincing birth of a Henry Gregory around either 1840 or 1861.
If that's the right couple in 1901, here's the death of one of the sons: Deaths Jun 1901 (>99%) Gregory Stephen 2 Ellesmere 6a 467
Here's Arthur in 1911:
1911 England Census about Auther Gregory Name: Auther Gregory Age in 1911: 10 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1901 Relation to Head: Nephew Gender: Male Birth Place: Ellesmere Civil parish: Pitton Baschurch County/Island: Shropshire Country: England Street Address: Wharf Lane, Weston Lullingfields Nr Baschurch, Salop Occupation: School Registration district: Ellesmere Registration District Number: 351 Sub-registration district: Baschurch ED, institution, or vessel: 6 Household schedule number: 123 Piece: 16196 Household Members: Name Age Henry Jones 49 Sarah Jones 43 Auther Gregory 10
Sarah is Jane's sister (nee Roberts):
Marriages Sep 1892 (>99%) Gregory Henry Oswestry 6a 1265 Roberts Jane Oswestry 6a 1265
Marriages Dec 1896 (>99%) Jones Henry Ellesmere 6a 1405 Roberts Sarah Ellesmere 6a 1405
The Roberts family in 1871:
1871 England Census about Jane Roberts Name: Jane Roberts Age: 1 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1870 Relation: Daughter Father's Name: Thomas Roberts Mother's name: Sarah Roberts Gender: Female Where born: St Martins, Shropshire, England Civil parish: Ifton Rhyn Ecclesiastical parish: St Martins Town: St Martins County/Island: Shropshire Country: England Registration district: Oswestry Sub-registration district: St Martin ED, institution, or vessel: 1 Household schedule number: 97 Piece: 2784 Folio: 68 Page Number: 16 Household Members: Name Age Thomas Roberts 43 Sarah Roberts 39 Margaret Roberts 9 Ann Roberts 6 George Roberts 5 Sarah Roberts 4 Jane Roberts 1

Dorothy's sisyer married in Nantwich Cheshire,so is it possible that Dorothy moved there too.
Violet May Gregory 1902 married 1925 to Frederick James Ratcliff.
Violet ratcliffe born 3/5/1902 died 19995 in Cheshire.

In the 1911 census Jane Davies's birth year is posted as 1875 You say that she was born 1868-1869 - from the first marriage certificate. If she claimed a birth year of 1875 to her second husband to make herself appear younger, she may have gone to her grave with all around her believing in that birth year. Did she try to make herself look older on the first marriage certificate because her husband was a lot older than her?

If she died after 1969 we can use her exact date of birth to help find her. If you say where your grandmother married, we can look for marriages in the same area, if appropriate. Or where your great grandmother died. If you have the death certificate of your great grandmother the informant could be one of her children - unmarried daughter, or daughter in married name.

trying to trace my grandmothers sister Dorothy Gregory born 1904 in Ellesmere Shropshire (scotland st.) in 1911 census. as my great grandfather died in 1907 and my great grandmother re-married they are now under Davies in the census. think my only hope is someone out there has Dorothy in there tree and can tell me where they moved to.
