Notes for Millicent Kate Bredin
Her birth is not to be found on FreeBMD: abroad?
In the index to the 1901 census this was found, probably her:
Name Age Where born Administrative county Civil parish Occupation
Millicent K Bredin 25 West Indies London Kensington Living On Own Means
If it was her, it gives her birth as c. 1876 and in the West Indies.

Her father is given in the transcript of the Times anouncement of her marriage: see marriage Notes.
