The keeping of the register was neglected at this time and on this page most entries are incomplete
"[1853] [date not given], Helen[?] daughter of Robert and Selina Osmond [sic], [abode not given], father's occupation: Labourer, [by whom the ceremony was performed not given]"
(change made to Christian name, looks like to Helen)
The first dated entry after this one (on the following page) was on 1st Jan. 1854. The last dated entry before (on the previous page) was on Christmas Day in 1853 - possibly all the undated entries following this were also on Christmas Day. Probably all the data not filled in should be taken as 'as above', in which case abode West Teignmouth, ceremony performed by Lawrence Gulpaul[?], Incumbent.
Three names written in left margin by entry, presumably godparents: Ann Harris, Ann Morly[?], Daniel Cross
Gender Female Residence Paris, France - Although Ellen did not marry until 1891 she was probably leaving in France by the time her sister Susan married in 1876, as she was a witness, as she was again when Susan re-married in 1888.

GRO ref: Gotham, Selina to Osborn, Robert q1 1851 Newton Abbot RD 10 253 (2 other couples on the same page but from the census it seems clear that Selina married Robert Osborn)
To make matters confusing:
In the St. Thomas RD of Exeter in Q1 1850 a Selina CASLEY married one Robert William OSBORNE.
(GRO ref: Casley, Selina to Osborne, Robert William Q1 1850 St Thomas RD 10 383)
This couple were of similar ages to the Selina and Robert Osborn on this tree, though with different birthplaces, occupation and children. Despite the differences some have muddled these 2 couples.
