Find Ancestors

Listed in an old book, that came to me after the death of my mothers close family,
are all the names and dates of birth of mums brothers and sisters. I knew all of my uncles but, up until receiving the book did not know that there had been a sister. She is recorded on the 1901 census but apart from that nothing. I had no idea that she existed no one in the family ever mentioned her. Has anyone else had this problem
and if so how was it resolved? I would appreciate any info. Many Thanks, Elizabeth

I really appreciate this: Alice Louise Jolley. dob 25th. Jan 1900

I have looked for a death certificate with no luck.

Thanks again. Elizabeth.

FMP has transcribed the 1911 surname as Golley. Report re error submitted, it looks like a J on the original and there is a G to compare it with!

A big thank you to you all for taking the time to help me trace my relation. It is very nice to feel part of a community, I thought it possible that she had died as a child and I am sure that the cert. MarieCeleste posted is her.
Thank you all once again. Elizabeth
