Ruth(?) Howley b. abt 1855 Hartpury (General)
As this group is the nearest, geographically, that I can find to Ruth's birthplace, I am hoping that one of you may be able to help me.
I am trying to trace any details there may be about Ruth and her family, so far I have;
1891 Census: 'Rose' Irvin, living in Hatrlepool, age 38, born in Gloucester, Widow.
Along with her children there is also an Emma Howley, age 18, born in Hartpury, Gloucestershire.
1881 Census: 'Ruth R' Irvin, living in Hartlepool, age 25, born in Hartpury, Gloucestershire.
1878 Marriage: 'Ruth Rosanna' Howley
1871 Census: 'Ruth' Howley, living in Gloucester, age 15, born in Hartpury.
Apr-Jun 1871: 'Rose Ann' Howley died in Newent district
Jan-Mar 1857: 'Rosannah' Howley born in Newent district
Jul-Sep 1855: 'Ruth' Howley born in Newent district
I guess vI'm hoping to confirm that the 1855 Ruth is the 1891 Rose, who her parents and siblings were and any other relevant information.
Than you, in advance,
Steve

Thank you both, so much information provided so quickly! I will now, of course, have to go back through all my notes and try to tie it all together. No doubt this will turn up even more questions which I hope you won't mind me asking.
