I would have thought Jeannie was born at the latest 1912 - otherwise wouldn't she have been a bit young to have gone to London, got a job, & returned to have Mary? Have you considered she may have been called Jeanie Adams, and assumed the name Alexander when her mother married? |

Thanks Flip, we have their address, we dont know when they moved there but once there, they remained until death. We checked the 1911 census and they were not there then so obviously moved some time between then and Jeanies birth, will pass it on, as far vitising Goole, he is most certainly within driving distance, might suggest that to him. |

I wonder if a trip to the Goole library would help find when William & Ann settled in Goole? They hold the Almanacks from 1908-1940 and are in name order, and some trade directories. They also hold the electoral rolls, so it could be worth a look at the address on Mary's birth certificate. |

I used a credit on Scotlandspeople to look at Alexander births with the middle name Adams buy there is no Jeanie or variation of it coming up. |

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! |

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 |

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?? |

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