Could someone please find me Anna Maria Armstrong in the 1901 census please?

Info from Free BMD tells me that she was born in the Mar Q 1893 and registered in the Basford district.

Any findings will/should help me to find out her parent's names along with any siblings, if she had any.
I would be able to progress on to the next census also with more details.
Regards Nala, :-)

March Q birth for Anna could cover a late Dec 1892 birth.

Other Shewards lived in the Carlton area. Getting Certs are the best way but I spent a fortune earlier this week after your excellent findings on another query. Thanks.

I know that the birth could have been late 1892................

............she still would not have been 9 in March 1901

That could, however, be simply an error by the mother............she'd been very recently widowed, and was probably distressed.

My fathers notes and BMD both say Ernest William was born 1892 Carlton, Notts.

The Sheward you found is from another family from Barboune, city of Worcester.
