Just looking at all Ensors born 1909-1911, there doesnt look one that would be a strong candidate to be Bea!

Oh, what does Help Aston mean? but isnt the birth name the same on that registration - or have I missed a post? I'll go back and see

Vanessa, Ignore the "help"....that is just to tell you what the numbers are and also Aston.....hope that makes sense.

That registered birth name looks the same as on the census tho, which is where I am getting a bit confused!

EDIT>>> Sorry, just found it - she was registered incorrectly as Beatrice EnsoN!

Thanks for all your help - gotta go and sort dinner now as it 6.10pm!

Much appreciate all your efforts!
Have a great day :0)

Definitely our guy - amazing work Dea, thanks. Might take a look and see if there are any other Ensors on there. I am starting to collate quite a few names now but not much social history - other than alot of them worked in the Pearl Button industry.
