I am looking to find the whereabouts of Florence Purt born in 1886 in Bury St Edmunds to George and Martha Purt. I can find her on the 1901 census named s Florry, but after this she has disappeared. Any help would be most grateful. Thank you. I have got her birthday as 2/8/1886, not from a certificate, so my not be right.

I assume you've looked for a death?

Or, more obviously, a marriage?

I found the manning one but couldn't see either of them on 1911 census. I see maybe she married again in 1910 and that is why. Thank you.
