Member Since: July 2008 Posts: 18,042 Send Message	There is an unsourced tree on Ancestry that has her dob as 31 Jul 1864, but it has no parents for her. EDIT: There are numerous trees have that date - yours is one of them. The reason why no birth can be found is quite likely that it was never registered. There were no penalties for not registering births until around 1874, so many before that time just went unrecorded.

	Karen, I take it that you have discounted the possible birth i posted above Roy

	Agnes M was born in 1866 Matilda was baptised in 1864 I cannot see how that could be her
