No MARY ALEXANDRA PAINTON BORN 1902 STREATLEY BERKSHIRE
listed on the GRO index, so Sandra is probably correct.

Hi On the 1911 census Blue boar North Heath Newbury Berkshire

Painton Henry born 1886
Painton Ann born 1867
Painton John s born 1897
PAINTON MARY ALEXANDRA BORN 1902 STREATLEY BERKSHIRE
RGnumber14 piece6379

When Mary was alive she told me that her birth name was Dix but she growup with the name PAINTON She married with the name DIX and Mary told me she grow up in the Blue Boar pub at Newbury I also know how she found out that she was not a PAINTON but a DIX her birth mother told her when she was 8 years old

Actually, looking again at he image of the 1911 census, it is Eveline Kate who has been crossed through..........

So Kate on the 1901 must be Eveline......

Births Mar 1897 (>99%)
Dix Eveline Kate Abingdon 2c 295

Which still ties in with the "Catherine" in the 1911 that Jan posted and there is not an "Eveline" that fits on the 1911.

Yes..........and according to Sanda, she has found Mary.

On the 1911 there are 8 children living, an Eveline is crossed through
Kate is accounted for

Hello Sandra - sounds like someone has got themselves in a muddle. If you have the certificates that prove the parent's names then take that as proof, not what someone else says!

But, where is Mary Ann in 1911? .....

My grandmother was Mary Alexandra Dix born Feb 1902 Father is William Dix born 1870 and Mother is Ann Lowe born 1869. Mary had a sister Gladys May Dix born 07/ 01 /1901 but someone has said that her mother was Elisa Ann Howe. As far as i can find out William Dix only had one wife .I have a copy of my grandmother birth certified and as i have said mother is Ann Elizia Dix formerly Lowe. Has someone got the first names the wrong way round and then got the surname wrong. What do you think Thank you Sandy
