Notes for Margaret Beresford
I cannot find her marriage or death in FreeBMD up to 1910. Not surprising as they were married in Bengal, India.
TFPL, Apr 2020: I had her name down as Margaret Beresford Hern and her father as Beresford Hern. But on the image of the marriage register both their surnames are clearly written as plain Beresford and his forename was John. No idea where I got this rubbish from! Now corrected.
___________________
At marriage she was written to be 24 years old so was either born in late 1823 or early 1824.
