Two possibles?

Births Mar 1884
Jones Miriam Chelsea 1a 381

Births Mar 1877
Jones Martha Amelia Chelsea 1a

Hope one of them is the right person,

Hi Melvin,
How about -
Miriam Jones, Chelsea, March 1884, vol.1a page 381. She is down as aged 7 on the 1891 census (under the name Milly)

1901 census piece 53 fo.89 page 13
Allestree Rd, Fulham
Charlotte E Jones, (M) 42, Tilehurst
Mabel dau, 2, Fulham
Miriam A, dau, 18, Fulham
1901 census piece 58 fo.99 page 4
Fulham Infirmary
James Jones, 52, Patient, Chimnney Sweep, Chelsea.

1891 census piece 49 fo.169 page 23
96 Estcourt Rd, Fulham
James Jones, 40 Chimney Sweep, Chelsea
Charlotte E, wife, 33, Reading
George, son, 14, Kensington

hi kate it may be that miriam was caled milly as a nickname and there is no other ref to milly anywhere but it should have miriam on the birth as all other certs have miriam on but i cant find miriam anywhere on the register i did find an amelia in 1881
q/4 vol 1a p 319 in chelsea and thats the nearest i can find and ive had a lot of wrong certs lately so i dont no about this one
