Please bear with me - I have posted this on another forum also as I would be grateful For whatever help I can grab
I am looking for evidence of 2 births, Elizabeth Ann Chadwick (apparently born 1881 in Allerton Bywater, near Leeds) and Clara Chadwick (my great grandmother - born possibly 1882-1884 in Hunslet, Leeds) So far I have got absolutely nowhere with Elizabeth Ann no record for birth anywhere but appears in the censuses in 1891 and 1901.
Clara - my great grandmother was apparently born in 1882 according to her marriage certificate and according to the censuses of 1891 and 1901 was born in 1884 in Hunslet, Leeds and Leeds respectively. Unfortunately, once again no birth certificate.
I have however now found a Clarissa Chadwick, registered in Ardsley in 1883 (that is not too far away from either Allerton Bywater, or Hunslet).
Would it be within the realms of possibility that it could have been Clara who was born in Allerton Bywater and not Lizzie Ann, further, could Clara be transcribed into Clarissa ?
If I could have some opinions that would be great, if anybody has any idea about the other birth certificate (Elizabeth Ann's) that would be brill too
Many thanks for any help I can get
