Mary Ann GRANT

  General Notes:

1881 census; 7 yo, living with father and sisters at 1 Union Terrace, Pocklington

1891 Census; age 17; at school in St.Margaret's Parish, Leicester. Is trainee governess I think.

1901 Census; was visitor at The Rowans, Bletchingley, Surrey (1901 census), home of her sister. Interestingly Robert Triffett (who was already married to Mary's sister Jessie) was also a guest at the same time.

1911 Census; Living as sister in law age 37 at Powisland, Union Street, Pocklington with brother is law Thomas Cliffe Grant and sister Edith. Occupation not given.

No record of a Pocklington marriage found, but doesn't mean there wasn't. If was married elsewhere then there are a number of possibilities.

Joint gravestone in Pocklington Cemetry for Thomas Cliffe Grant, Edith Mary Walford Grant and Mary Ann Grant. No dates on it. In same cemetry is gravestone of Thomas Grant and Mary Anne Grant. Have pictures of both. Again would imply not married if buried with sister and brother-in-law, and has her name as Grant.
