Hi Jenny, Did you get the marriage certificate for Maud to Benjamin Oswin that I posted on your last thread. I really think you need the marriage certificate to hopefully give you some more clues about Maud's family. Here's the ref again incase you need it. Benjamin G. Oswin, Dec quarter 1923, District Wandsworth, Vol 1d, Page 1301. Wife Maude Kilbey. Fiona.

Jenny, I lived in Battersea for a year but I have several friends who have settled in the Northcote Road area. Check no. 34 in 1901 and they're not there. Rose
