Great Grandmother
My great grandmother was born in Great Houghton in 1868. She married Charles Neville and moved to Swanscombe in Kent. She had four children at the time of the 1901 census, the eldest of whom was nine.
All I know is that her name was Lizzie! I need to do some research to find her maiden name and to see if any relatives of "Lizzie" live in the area.
I now live 20 miles from Great Houghton, having been born in Dartford, Kent. She and I have crossed paths!

RE: RE: Great Grandmother
Hi, I had a quick look at the free BMD website and there is a Charles Ernest Neville who married Lizzie Marlin in the June quarter of 1890 Stood 2a 905.
looking further Lizzie is listed under the Hardingstone registration district as being born in the Dec quarter of 1868 3b 39
Lizzie's parents appear to be Ekin and Elizabeth Marlin (nee Tompkins). Elizabeth's parents Richard and Charlotte (nee Batchelor).
Ekin's parents were William and Elizabeth Marlin of Raunds
I hope this helps with your research.
