I am trying to fill in a few ancestral gaps - one is my great aunt Clara CLASPER b. c1872. The census information I had to date was born in Newcastle, but I found her in the 1901 census as a servant girl in London and she gave her birthplace as Resswille, NBL.

I'm guessing this could be Cresswell. Could anyone do a look-up of her parents in the 1871 census? Father was Thomas Henry CLASPER, mother Jane SCOTT (maybe!!) - I do know they were not married at the time, so Clara's birth details are not in the civil registers.

Most grateful for any assistance,
