Rosa Ellen Holyer b.1903

Angela Noble contacted me to tell me about Rosa Ellen Holyer who had two sisters and a connection with the Holdstock family. It confirms that she must have been the daughter of Charles Richard Holyer and Ellen Mabel Kingsmill Holdstock who married in Tenterden in 1903. Curiously, Ellen Holdstock's brother Ernest Joseph also married a Holyer, but from a distant branch.

It's often the case that uncertainties remain for individuals born in the 1901-1911 gap: after the 1901 census and before the appearance of mother's maiden names in the birth indexes.
