Victoria, Just checked the image for 1871. Amelia is listed first of the children which usually suggests she is the oldest. Image could be 19 which would make her born approx 1852. Not found her on 1861 census. Maureen

On the 1871 census it says Amelia was born in 1852, this could be a mistake though.

Is Amelia born 1852 or 1859? There is an Amelia Chambers on 1861 but born 1859 Northamptonshire listed as grand daughter
