Many thanks for extra info ??

malyon ...........

I looked at that, but I don't think adult "Emily Lishman" are her ...... she seems to have adopted Edith as her usual name sometime before 1881.

Emily Lishman
New York Book Indexes to Passenger Lists, 1906-1942

immigration: from 1906 to 1942 New York, United States

Thanks for extra info i will have a good read.

Posting baptism again

Name: Emily Edith Augusta Lishman

Search Photos: Search for 'Worth Matravers' in the UK City, Town and Village Photos collection
Phillimore Ecclesiastical Parish Map:
View this parish
Father: John William Lishman
Mother: Thomasine Emma Lishman

Have taken a look at the original record and it is noted at the side of this entry:-
Born Oct 28 1863 so 1939 record is her as same date of birth.

relevant to 1939
Name: Edith Augusta Lishman
Year: 1939
County or Borough: Islington
Ward or Division/Constituency: Islington East and West
Street address: 59 Mildmay Grove

Unfortunately the baptism record doesn't give her birth date, but if you buy her birth certificate it will give you her exact date of birth, which will confirm, or not, if the 1939 record is her.

You're welcome ..... just thought I'd post that baptism as it came up when I was looking to see if I could find a probate record.

Yes I do have that but still many thanks for your help.
