Im trying to get my mums cousins on to my family tree ,and im not hundred percent certain i have got the right Person,
but Mum always Said She hada cousin called Norah or Nora ,so this is how it is My Mum has the Name Eileen Nora Thompsett born Brighton 1923 ,Her Aunt was Nora[h ]Thompsett born 1897 ,in Brighton.
Records Show Norah Thompsett to be Married in 1920 Brighton to a William Williams had a daughter in Brighton1923 called Eileen m Williams,then in 1925 had a Daughter called Norah T Williams,
im not certain if i have the right Norah who married a Mr Williams .but im just thinking all the names fit ,i cant aford to buy record /certificates,i have done that befor and its expencive if not correct ones if you find they are not the right people ,but if any one knows of the right Thompsett family in that are that Norah Thompsett /Williams came from it could help me add or eliminate and may help me talk with some of the family maybe ,as there were at least 3 Norah and Nora born in Brighton in the 1890s ,i will be most gratefull if anyone can help ,im still to solve this many thanks to any one who helped me yesterday ,but i have to ask again ,thank you ,

this is them but some times i have seen her name spelt Nora in the family and otheres Norah ,but i have not been able to find out who she was married to,and the spelling is making it diffficult
i have seen Grandad on one 1901 list but not another they did miss him out on one ,in fact i had aconversation forthis very reson last week with some one in my family ,i was thinking i had imagined seeing it but she said no i had seen it but they missed it out on the transcript ,so mysterious or what , Lol

Dont know why maybe she was living at aplace of work /?? my Great Grandad James Died in 1909 and Julia Married again you see.and also my family is so confusing as you will see Alfred he was born Jerome but known as Alfred and so the 1911 record says Alfred ,it could be that Gilbert filled that in and only knew him as Alfred thanks but were Nora[h] is i dont know

Death??
Nora Williams born 27/9/1896 died in Brighton 1973 V5h P 192.

Julia Lipscombe died 1940 in Brighton age 64 = 1876.

No sign of Nora 1911,where on earth is she.

Have you been intouch with the owner of the tree with Norah born 1897 in Preston Sussex,she is the only Norah on 1911 census.
