I have just found my Gt Gt Gt grandafather's third wife a Ruth Roser born 1867 Brighton. Would it be possible for someone to try and locate her on the 1901 census to see what her situation was before she married, I was wondering whether she had any family.

She married my GGG Grandfather in 1919 in Brighton, William Baker born 1849, widow. I have an old photo album many from Brighton, just trying to possibly put a name to some of them!

Thank you.

She was alone for a long time wasnt she? But as I was reading t'other day in 1851 there were 500,000 more women than men in the UK.
