Rosina FOWLER
Set As Default Person -
Name Rosina FOWLER Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born 16 Apr 1887 Leeds, Kent, England
- About 1886 and place from 1911 census (where shown as aged 24), place and about Apr 1887 from the 1921 census (where shown as aged 34 years and 2 months).
GRO ref: Fowler, Rosina q2 1887 Hollingbourne RD 2a 755; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Brown
No 'Rose' Fowlers born the right age and area, but a Rosina Fowler born in Hollingbourne RD which included Leeds.
Although the name shown as Rose when she married, there is a death registration for a Rosina of the right age, but none for a Rose, adding weight to this being the right person.
Actual date (month and date in month) from death registration and 1939 register; as is not infrequently the case the year was one year out from that suggested by the birth registration in both documents, although the date agrees with the quarter. I suspect the informant either got her age a little wrong in working out her birth year, or forgot to take account of her not having had her birthday in the year she died.

The index (on Free BMD) shows an Albert George Whitehead on the same page - clearly suggesting an alternative name for the same person. However, the PR entry does not show Whitehead as an alias, but does name his father as William George Whitehead.
