    Default 1901 census: Mary Elizabeth Osborne

    Mary Osborne was born in Illogan,Cornwall and was a servant in Devon.
    Registration was Newton Abbot,Sub district Torquay.
    I am interested who else was in that household and what the address was.

    Thanks for the reply. Were any of the others from Cornwall?
    Elizabeth married a chap called Pears.

    No sorry, only Mary was from Cornwall. Most of the other members were from Scotland, Eliza & Florence from Devonshire, Isabella from India,

    On another site the heads surname is Gairdener and on the original script it looks more like this than the previous surname of Pairdener

    Thanks again.
    Mary's dropped a few years in the 1901 census.
    She was 24 in the 1891 Cornwall census and in 1901 she is 29.
