Maria Head 25 1816 Female Not born in County

In the 1851 Census Sarah's place of birth is given as Southrop which is where Maria was at the time of the 1841 Census and suggests that she may be Sarah's mother.

This looks like the birth registration (Southrop was in Northleach Registration District)
