With different accent's.......i bet it's a simple case of the enumerator mistaking "Ramsey" for "Romsey" which is in Hampshire!

Good luck Natalie.......please get back to us on this thread when you receive the certificates. PH x :-)

Haha!! I like how you've all voted on Palmer! :-D :-D

Thank you very much! You've all been so helpful!

I'm still a little confused! lol So I think i'll order a birth certificate so I can confirm the name 100%. I think I'll order Ernest's as he was my Great Grandfather so might be nice to keep that. :-)

On the 1897 joint baptisms that Andy posted for Emily Fanny and Ernest Charles, Thomas' occupation is given as Farrier and the home address was 104 Duncombe Road.

Hmmm....it's a bit confusing because in the 1901.... Susan "Susin" was born Romsey Hampshire.....and yet on the 1911 it state's born...Ramsey Huntingdonshire, which is in Cambridge i believe.

This census from 1871 fits with Susan Palmer. Same birth year/place as Susan Gough in 1901

The only certain way is one of the childrens birth certs.

Andy and Roy - thank you very much for your help aswell.

A relative thought that Susans name could have been Palmer, but I have never found any evidence of this. So It could be Franklin :-S

I suppose the only way of being 100% sure is to buy one of the childrens birth certificates right? :-)

Hi PricklyHolly.

Thank you for responding so quickly :-)

Thomas was born in Hambledon, Hants (Hampshire) and the children were born in London (In Holloway I think)

I'm not sure about the mother though .
