Hi all,
I need the usual help to find Sophia Pilgrim(Pilbin) in 1851 and 1841, if it's not too cheeky.
In 1861 (working in Marylebone), she gave her p.o.b as Hawkhurst, Kent in 1840.

Thank you once again.

Hi Steve,
I have found two possibles. The date and place are right but there are variables on the name.

1841 Kent HO107/0477
High Street, Elham, Kent

William Pilcher 30 Ag Lab born in county
Louisa 30 born in county
John 7 botn in county
George 5 born in county
Frances 3 born in county
Sophia 1 born in county

The name on the original image is definitely PILCHER

1851
HO107/1635/folio139
2 High Wickham, Hastings All Saints, Sussex

George George 88 Head Retired Post Master born Lydd, Kent
Sophia George 46 Dau. Lodging House Keeper born Hastings, Sussex
Sophie Pilbram 12 Grand Dau. born Hawkhurst, Kent
Fanny Goosell 21 Servant born Hawkhurst, Kent
Mary Ann Hackluts 48 Lodger Annuitant born Islington, Middlesex
Mary Ann Dodgson 14 Lodger born Clapton, Middlesex

The name on the image is definitely PILBRAM

Do any of these names fit anything you have?

Hi All

I think you can discount the first one Sophia Pilcher as she appears in 1861 at the same address as in 41 and 51 and Sophia Pilgrim also appears in Hawkhurst in 61

Hi Steve
Are we looking for Sophia Pilbin or did she marry and become Pilgrim ?
I have searched all the counties in 1851 on the Genaealogist website and nothing came up.
I searched 1841 and still nothing.
Has this surname undergone a change in transcribing ?

Hi Nainmaddie,

The marriage is a BMD entry for Sophia Pilbin and George Holloway, and Sophia Pilgrim is her name when she was working with her future husband George Holloway in 1861.

I have no certs at all.
