I'm looking for the births of:
Gertrude Pearsall 1882/3 and Rosetta Pearsall 1884/5, both born in Netherton, Dudley.
Their parents were William & Rosetta Pearsall.
1891 12/2298/16/27 shows them living at 34 Simms Lane, Netherton with children:
Elizabeth (1882), Gertrude (1883) and Beatrice A. (1888)
Beatrice Ann died 1895 and Rosetta (mother) died 1900.
Where is Rosetta (1884/5) in 1891?
Both Gertrude & Rosetta were baptized 1889 - St. Andrews, Netherton.
Father - William - Plater - Simms Lane.
Gertrude married William Thomas Rolph in 1907 and Rosetta married William Whitehouse in 1910.
Rosetta appears with her father in 1901 at 21 St. Andrews St. Netherton aged 16 with Gertrude (18) and William H. (6)
I cannot see a birth for either of them on FreeBMD or West Midlands BMD.
Can anyone help please?
Sheila

Hi Sheila What about Rosanna Pearsall 1st qu 1883 Dudley Vol 6 Page 132? I had a Rosetta in my family and there were all sorts of variations. Might be worth a try? Regards Looby

Have you considered the Rosetta Pearson entry Sept qtr 1884 Dudley district vol 6c page 124?
I can imagine it would be very easy to misread the "sall" as "son" in a copy sent to the GRO.
I would be tempted to order it and see what the parents names are.

Oh, and there are three Gertrude Pearson entries -
Sept qtr 1882 Dudley 6c 132
Dec qtr 1884 Dudley 6c 36 and 6c 42
I used a wildcard search with Pears* to find those.

Hi Looby & Mark,
I hadn't thought about the name Pearson at all - how silly of me, I do usually try all variations but don't know why I didn't do it this time - one of those moments....
Many thanks for all your help/suggestions
Sheila

Thanks Geoffers - I had already got that marriage for William & Rosetta and births for all their other children who were born in Dudley - just couldn't find Gertrude/Rosetta
