I am looking for a Jeanie Adams Alexander, I have no idea of birth date but she had an illegitimate child in 1928 called Mary Alexander when she was working as a servant, the child was called Mary Alexander who was born in Goole, Yorkshire. Jeanies parents I believe were called William (1874-1956) and Annie (or Ann) Alexander, William was originally from Scotland and eventually ended up living in Goole, both William and Annie died in Goole, as far as I am aware William was a Journeyman Joiner. Jeanie went to London were she worked as a servant and the trail ends there, I know that Mary visited her mother in London when she was an adult but always thought she was her sister, Mary was brought up by her grandparents believing them to be her parents. Does anyone have any info on this family, Regards, Ellie. |

Hi Ellie, if you can find William and Annie's marriage then that will give you Annie's maiden name which in turn may help pinpoint Jeanie's birth. |

Its possible Jeannie may have been the informant on one of the death certs of her parents |

Is the 1946 death correct, as birth in 1896 possibly too late? |

Would really like to find this little lady in 1911. Maybe not related but at least we could rule her out as a sister to Jeanie?? |

Really strange that 1910 posting as if you go the long way round and look at 1910 1st qtr for letter A then it is not listed at all under Alexander |

Thank you all for the replies, the census post for 1911 looks interesting, it is thought that Mary's father may have been a doctor! |
