  • Dorcas Annie confusions

    Can anyone cast a fresh eye over this please.

    1871 Dorcas Annie PIPE born in Yeovil, Somerset
    PIPE, DORCAS MMN COLLARD
    GRO Reference: 1871 D Quarter in YEOVIL Volume 05C Page 488
    1891 census Camberwell
    Dorcas A Pipe Servant Single Female 19 1872 General servant Yeovil, Somerset, England

    1898 marriage to Henry Skitteral in Norwood, Surrey
    Marriage Sep 1898 SKITTERAL Henry James Lambeth 1d 790
    Marriage Sep 1898 PIPE Annie Dorcas Lambeth 1d 790
    1904 death of husband Henry
    Death Jun 1904 Skitteral Henry James 31 Lambeth 1d 208
    1911 census Yeovil
    Dorcas Annie Skitteral Servant Widow Female 38 1873 Cook domestic Yeovil Marsh Somt

    1922 Q4 Marriage to Edward BARTLETT
    Marriage Dec 1922 SKITTERAL Dorcas A Bartlett Yeovil 5c 899
    Marriage Dec 1922 BARTLETT Edward Skitteral Yeovil 5c 899

    But my search in the 1921 census came up with this... at Shipton in Wychwood in Oxfordshire.

    Wrong age, wrong place of birth and wrong husband's name -

    So have I gone wrong somewhere? My instinct would be that I have found the wrong person but that's too many coincidences mixed in with the wrong information.

    If she married in 1922 then surely she wouldnt be Bartlett in 1921?

    I can see a Dorcas Annie Skitteral born c1872 in Yeovil in the free index to the 1921 census, so assume this is her?

      This is the Bartlett information
      BARTLETT, VICTOR GEORGE ALGERNON HOWSE
      GRO Reference: 1897 S Quarter in CHIPPING NORTON Volume 03A Page 951
      Bartlett George Chipping N. 3a 1563
      Howse Dorcas Annie Chipping N. 3a 1563

      So definitely not yours! Just a similarity of names.

        Thank you, Sylvia. That solves the problem I think. I should not have assumed that Dorcas Annie was un unusual name.
