Are you sure this is 'your' Louisa Sheppard?

Is the father Edward or William?

Definitely William as Father.

So sorry everyone had to go out,
Yes it is William the father, put wrong name down
I am fairly sure It is Louisa, Williams daughter who married Samuel
Saunders .There daughter Alice is on the 1871 census age 8 staying
with her Grandparents William and Lucy Sheppard.
I have looked for death`s on freebmd but can`t find any.

Hello Staffslass
Thankyou it does look promising Louisa and Mary at the school even though Louisa`s birth is 4 years out.
I just need to find William now,
Thankyou
Carol

Bear in mind that registration of deaths was not compulsory until 1875 or thereabouts -William and Sarah Ann may have died but not been registered -you could try the National Burials index

I thought that the leeway with registrations applied only to births......................

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,65806.0.html
'Nearly all deaths were registered because from 1837 burial was only permitted on the production of a death (or coroner's) certificate, which confirmed that civil authorities had been informed of the death.'

Thsnkyou everyone for your help ii appreciate you taking thr time and
trouble to look for me.

Regards
Carol
