Notes for Mary Elizabeth Sackville (born Stopford)
No sign can be found of any registration or baptism for her.  Yet she clearly appeared in both the 1861 and 1871 censuses.

A candidate for misprints is:

Name:                         Mother's Maiden Surname:
STAFFORD, MARY ELIZABETH      -  
GRO Reference: 1853  S Quarter in MARKET HARBOROUGH  Volume 07A  Page 13

Might the surname be Stopford and the Mother’s maiden name in fact have been Sackville?
But her sister Beatrice Evelyn was born in August 1853.  Rats.

All her siblings for two years either side of 1852 were baptised at St Paul’s, Knightbridge.  So I have examined all pages of the baptism register from May to October 1952 but none had any Stopford or similar baptism on them.

No marriage or death can be found for her either, bearing in mind that she was Sackville then.
