I am trying to find a birth record and census records 1871 and 1881 for my GGrandmother, Rose Ellen Slack born 1862/63 in Lambeth Surrey/London.
Rose married George Henry Dellow in 1886 Hastings, Sussex and then moved to Marylebone, London where she died in 1905.
Thankyou

Birth may not have been registered - no penalties for not doing so until 1875

Have you looked yourself for a birth?

ArgyllGran Report 5 Oct 2020 15:41

She seems to be Rose Ellen only at death, and not in censuses:

Rose Ellen Dellow
in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Death Index, 1837-1915
Name: Rose Ellen Dellow
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1901
Registration Year: 1905
Registration Quarter: Jan-Feb-Mar
Age at Death: 4
Registration District: St Marylebone
Inferred County: London
Volume: 1a
Page: 380

Steve has added a note on Ancestry:
" Death record states Rose Ellen Dellow was aged 42 in 1905 therefore estimated date of birth should be 1863, this would be correct with all other information contained in my family tree."

The GRO Index also says her age was 42.

You need the marriage cert, to see if she gave a father’s name

Anyone else think that Clarissa and Rose may be the same person? I'm not seeing an obvious marriage or death for Clarissa Mary Slack. She doesn't appear with her siblings on the 1871 census but Rose does and only one year difference in the year of birth.
