Happy New Year.
I would like to know more about this lady.
She was b 1884, Plymouth, Devon but all I have are the records of her BMD and probate. She is not to be found on the '91 or '01 census's.
She married my ancestor John Smale Woolcott in 1902, on the 1911 census he was a colour sgt in the military. Maybe Himalaya's father was in the military which is why I can't find the family.
I would like to find her before her marriage.
Can anyone Help please.
Regards,
Ann. :-)

Hi Reggie,
Didn't think that her mother's name was Jolliffe, silly me.
It takes a fresh mind,
Thank you.

hi All,
One last question.
The word Charles after some records appears, what does this mean, or am I being dense.
