Francis Low(e) and his family moved from Pendennis Castle to Portsmouth in 1835. Francis took up a job as Gate Warder at HM Gunwharf and the family lived in Hobbs Court/Dean Street and were there at the 1841 Census. Francis and his wife, Margaret, had adaughter, Margaret, born 17 November 1828 and baptised in Falmouth Parish Church on 1 January 1829. There is no record of a burial for Margaret in the Falmouth PR and she does not appear in any Census from and including 1841. So, I'm looking for a possible burial between 1835 and 1841 in, or around Portsea. I have looked at the GRO Register itself, not FreeBMD, and there is no Margaret Low(e) death recorded between 1837 and 1841.
Any help will be very much appreciated.

Well, as I have a few credits on the FFHS site which (thanks to me moving home) are going to expire before I've used them up, how about ...

Margaret Low buried 27 Aug 1836 age 6 Parish Portsea Mile End Cemetery

Thanks ever so much, that not only fits the bill, but done by return, Wow! Perhaps you should think about changing from Mythology to Legendary |bowdown|
Thanks again

Peter, if you ever lose any more around Pompey, you could try the Knightroots web-site which has loads of useful transcriptions for the city. I don't know if your lass is metioned there, but it's worth bookmarking the web-site for future reference

Thanks Geoffers,
Although it didn't have the answers this time, it is a really useful site.
