What was your question?

And, as you have access to Ancestry, you can find ALL census info yourself.

Have you done any research as to whether she married?

You should be using Lancsbmd to look for siblings......!

My OP is quite clear as to what i have found and the research i have carried out. I was merely asking for a second opinion. And as the census indicates the couple had a rather large family and i am unable to account for all the births i was asking for help. The death i have posted in 1960 would indicate that she did not marry.

Who was granted Probate (or Administration) on the record you say you've found?

Mark Report 18 Mar 2013 14:16

As she was born Alice A Buck and died Alice A Buck a good indication she did not marry
