  • Notes 
    • There is a lot of confusion about her forename.
      When she marries James Shutt it is listed as Myarham
      She is consistant with being born in Handsworth
      In 1861 she is Myrah
      In 1871 she is Mira
      In 1881 she is listed as Wyraham
      In 1891 I haven't found them
      In 1901 she is Myra A
      In 1911 she is indexed as Ingraham but it actually reads Myraham
      In 1939 she is Myra
      When she dies in 1947 it is as Myra
      On her BMD birth entry she is Mira
