Sorry Moody Blue I have been away from computer for a long weekend
The Susan living in 1911 with her Aunt is I believe the Susan I am looking for as Susan Elizabeth Upton was my Grandfather's Sister, she was living with her Father up to the 1881 census.

Many thanks Jill

Have you been able to purchase Susan's birth or marriage certificate? The details on these, like her actual birth date ,could be very useful in helping to determine whether a death for her could be the correct one. Her husband age on the marriage certificate could also be of use and even the witnesses could prove useful. Purchasing a childs birth certificate too may be found to be of use.

Hello Moody Blue
I do not know Susan's married name or even if she did marry but apparently when Mum was young she was contacted by a Council ( as far as she could recall Manchester) to see if she would take in a Son - probably in the 1930's although her memory of this was a little vague.

Thanks Jill

Thanks everyone - As my direct Family did not have anything to do with her I think Susan must have called herself something different after 1911.
