My Grandmother was Jane Quin, born in "Cork" in about 1865, father was Richard Quin. She married in England in 1889 ans the certificate says that she was 24. In a cnsus in early 1900 she is quoted as being born in Chelmcford.

 Help greatly appreciated.

  • My grandmother's marriage cerificate, 12 dec 1889, gives birthplace as Cork. She then moved to England and in the 1911 Census gives birthplace as Chelmsford. was there such a place in cork or was she giving wrong info - perhaps fear of admitting Irish birthplace?
