am I missing something here??

if Mary H was born in 1901 & Margaret Plumb married Curnow in 1898 surely Mary's name would have been Mary Harriet Curnow??

I am confused perhaps with the margaret Plumb's here but Margaret (Curnow's) daughter Margaret was only age 15 in 1901 when Mary Harriet was born

would it not be best to get mary harriet's birth cert to prove her parentage?

did you know margaret Plumb's maiden name was probably Titley as shown by Staffs bmd

Oh yes. :-S

in 1901 margaret was the tobacconist and general dealer he was a road haulier

He was a Tobacconist and General Dealer in 1901 so he must be wheelin and a dealin away from home somewhere! :-)

in 1911 census margaret curnow was with her son william plumb and his family cheers

I found Margaret................but you probably have that already...........
