    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Reference Number: S 0206a
    • Census: 7 Apr 1861, Kirkby Ireleth, Lancashire, England; : 6y; Address: Valley(?) Marsh Side

    Notes:

    In 1861 is shown as daughter of George & Dorothy
    In 1871 Dorothy is now a widow and has a Grand-daughter Alice Johnson living with her.

    1st thought is that she is daughter of one of G&D's daughters who married a Johnson
    In 1854 a Jane Simpson married Thomas Johnson (looked in BMD and found them on same page) (1854 JAS Ulverston 8E 779)
    This would fit nicely.

    Looked in 1861 census and found a likely Thomas and Jane but no daughter called Alice.
    Could be that she should be shown as Granddaughter with George & Dorothy?
