Wonder if anyone can help I have Emma Murray born Forest Gate, Essex in 1844. Found her on the census for 1851 and 1861, but after that nothing. I suppose she could have married, and have looked to see any marriage, but not been successful. If anyone can find her on 1871 census, or her marriage, would be much obliged. Maureen

Maureen Where was she on the 1861 There are 16 marriages to cross ref between 61 and 71

Julie On the 1861 census she is Nursmaid to Frederick Carson, an East India Merchant, living at 59 Romford Road, Upton Place, Forest Gate, Parish West Ham, Church Street. She is 17 then. Lost her after that. Maureen
