I have found this lady on the 1871 census. Ruth Flatman born 1852 Norfolk but I cannot make out some details on the original.
it says she is a domestic servant unemployed i think but the person she is with is a "matron"? of some home. Also where it usually says daughter/son etc it says something else i cannot read.

Could some kind person have a look and tell me what they think are the details.
I wonder also what place she is in? it just says all saints St?

Suggestions please would be appreciated

All Saints Street, South Lynn All Saints, Kings Lynn, Norfolk, England


First name(s) Last name Relationship Marital status Sex Age Birth year Occupation Birth place
Anna Kerrison Lodger - Female 64 1807 - Norfolk, England
Ruth Flatman Servant - Female 19 1852 - Norfolk, England

Anna's occupation appears to say Under Matron Lynn Home. She's a Lodger and a Widow born Ringstead, Norfolk. Her surname appears to be correctly transcribed as Kerrison (found on 1861 census) with husband John, a Miller

Ruth is a Servant, unmarried - Servant domestic unemployed born Tydd St Mary, Norfolk

On a current map Tydd is just in Lincs, but you could hop across the border into Norfolk or Cambs
