Thank you ErikaH for taking the time to look at this.
I suppose because a time was given for the previous addresses it would just follow on that the chaplain service was for 7 months .
She was baptised sept 1879 about a month after she was born. So I don't know what a chaplain service would be aged 7 months.
I wish the wording after chaplain service was easier to decipher.

Thanks once again for your help
Linda

She was aged 7 MONTHS when the 'Chaplain service' took place.

It MAY NOT be 'prison' ........................that was only how it seemed taking an initial look at the doc.

As you will have observed, I deleted that reference from my earlier post and gave you instead the FULL wording of the writing at the head of the page

Thank you for looking

Elizabeth would have been 5 months pregnant in August 1898
. She was last seen on the 1891 census at home with her family

https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/6598/images/WILRG12_972_974-0297?pId=27006714&backurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ancestry.com%2Ffamily-tree%2Fperson%2Ftree%2F27348072%2Fperson%2F2043450200%2Ffacts%2Fcitation%2F542032135165%2Fedit%2Frecord

If she left Aldbourne 5 years before 1898 she would have been 14 years old.
The rest of her family are still at home on the 1901 census.

If the chaplain service was while she was in prison can you read the name of the prison?

At the top of the document it says Chargeability and then something is handwritten. Can you read what that says. I can't make it out

Thank you so much for taking the time to read it

The doc is an application for 'relief' by a woman who is 'Pregnant and destitute' and is applying to go into the Workhouse

The blue form is simply an application for a search for her birth cert.....fee one shilling
