hearsay tells me she could have been born in Sunderland but don't know how much truth is in that.

So many Mary Chisholms who may be her. Best to wait for that cert and then do the job properly.

she could be down as Effie - the ennumerator may have had difficulty in spelling her real name or perhaps he though she was the more common Euphemia - there are lots of those on the census so where she lived would be a help

Hi,
this lady was my gg grandmother she married my gg grand father William Harris in March 1881.
Now with a name like Euphratis you would think it an easy task to find her birth, well I can't, could somebody please look for me 'cos I'm inpatient ,
I have sent for the marriage cert this morning should receive it shortly.
Lesley.
