    • GRO ref: Goatham, Sophia q4 1844 Faversham RD 5 174. GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Houghten.
      n.b. the original index clearly shows the page number as 174, but the online index shows 74; I don't know which is correct.

    Residence to 1875  3, Shortlands Villas, Beckenham, Kent, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • Probably where she died, it is where her last child was born and where her husband was living when he reigstered that birth.
    Occupation
    Died Between 6 Jan 1875 and 15 Feb 1875  Bromley Reg Dist, Kent, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    Cause: Childbirth 
    • GRO ref: Inge, Sophia aged 30 q1 1875 Bromley RD 2a 248
      * I am guessing that Sophia died as a result of childbirth *

      For a young woman, dying the same quarter as a child was born, this has to be the most likely cause. In Sophia's case we can tell from the birth registration for her daughter that she died between the birth and when it was registered.
