William Report 1 Apr 2011 10:05

My relative Emma Stephens was born in the Manchester area in c 1883.I have always looked at a possible marriage for her in the Prestwich District in 1903 to a David "Hills"?Looking at the 1911 Census Index there is an Emma Hills given as born in Lancashire Bradford in 1884 and living in the Prestwich District.Can anyone show the Household please?

Regards
William Russell Jones.
