What info are you looking for Edward, so we dont duplicate stuff you already have - what do you have - her marriage, her birth? Can you not find her anywhere other than 1871?

Have you bought her birth cert for £7?

I have her birth date, and have her in 1871 census... thats all. she was illegitimate, and her mother married Frank Robinson in 1872 and moved to County Durham with children she had with Frank.
