On this 1891 census http://interactive.ancestry.co.uk/65...l=ReturnRecord
I am trying to find out the name of the granddaughter listed with John C Smith and is wife and son - reference position on left is written 300 in the margin. She was born in Earlstown Lancashire. On first looking I thought the surname could be Law or Laws, but haven't found a birth after looking on Free BMD, Lancashire BMD and Ancestry. I have also discounted Raw or Rawe. The L on the word Lancashire is quite definite on the census which led me to believe, on zooming in, that the surname could possibly start with R. I can't see the age as this has a cross through it, and the Christian name isn't too clear, it could be Cath short for Catherine?
I am sure somebody has much better eyesight than I and could help.
Thanks in advance!
