I had a grandfather married to Ruby Weir in Rotherham, Yorkshire in 1911. She has a slightly mysterous past in that her sister Marguretta was born in Canada to a mother Evelyn. There's also a family story that her parents ran a pub. Mr Weir may have died because the first time we see her here is in a census 1901 living with a step-father George Smith and her mother in Great Preston, Tadcaster. Have done little work on her as she's not my relative She died in 1923/4 and is buried in Tinsley church Sheffield. Have the certificate.Born in Royston, Barnsley so she's mining stock. Her parents maybe went to dig gold or run a bar? Not very exciting I'm afraid, lots of poverty, but have a portrait photo of her and she's a robust good lookingwoman. She had two sons Bernard and Jack. Terrible life.Some more info but unlikely to be your relative.
