I'm researching an Elizabeth Anne Nurse born 1852 in norfolk. I've found her mother Maria Nurse but can't find any father. I will get her birth certificate but haven't had chance yet.
Going through census reports I've found that Elizabeth has got 4 siblings but there's no father in the picture. I've found baptism reports on freereg for all the children but no father is mentioned on any.
What I was wanting to know is surely it would've been very unusual for a women to have several children whilst being unmarried. I have found a possible marriage for her but thats after having all of her children.
I can't help but think I'm missing something obvious.
