Events

Birth Birth of Florence Sweetman,  about Aug 1880  at  Birmingham

DOB based on her death certificate which said she was 71 in 1951.

I found a Florence Sweetman born in Bham SepQ 1879, Vol 6d pg 169, this is almost certainly the correct entry. But there was another entry in B'ham, DecQ 1882, Vol 6d, Pg 57.

However, since Ann Sweetman (her mother) married John Neary in May 1882, it is unlikely (but not impossible) that she was bearing Sweetman children in 1882.

Death Death of Florence Sweetman,  12 May 1951  
Residence 1891 Census? William Sweetman,  1891  at  76 Milk Street
