Stonegravels is an area in Chesterfield. The household waste centre is currently in that area

Edit Snap Denise[/quote]So far, I can only see 2 children Ibbotson with mmn Musgreaves . Checked all spellings but...
Fred B 1879 Sheffield
George Henry B 1876 Sheffield
Theres a baptism record in May 1881 Chesterfield, for Fred Ibbotson. Father George, Occupation Engineer, Mother Elizabeth (I think Clara Elizabeth is on one of the census as just Elizabeth?). Address Stonegravels.
That would tie in with Mary Anns place of birth as Stonegravels/Chesterfield, but doesn't get us much nearer - if indeed it is related(?).
I have analysed the various ages at different events for Mary Ann and it is clear that her date of birth was in late 1881.
To repeat what I said earlier the only Mary Ann Ibb*n birth registered in that period and area was Mary Ann Ibbertsen in COLCHESTER in Q4 1891. OK she had no mother maiden name recorded but that could be an error by the person who registered it.
It is available as digital copy from GRO with instant delivery. Cost is £3, less than a cup of coffee. Very little to lose and potentially a lot to gain

Sorry I made an error in my earlier message about purchasing aBirth cert for Mary Ann. When I said Colchester it should have been CHESTERFIELD . Senior moment!!!!!

Have you looked at our burial records. Mary Ann & her mother are in the same grave at City Rd. Check who else is buried with them.
I also noted on the 1911 census there are four Castleton children in the household. The fourth is Albert but says he's illegitimate.
Next finding.... Alfred George Castleton aged 32 died December qtr 1907 and is also in that grave at City Road.
Not what you asked for but I always need to get a better feel for the family.
I like the findings of Denise with Stonegravel being in Chesterfield. Thats where I would concentrate the research.
Did you find where Mary Ann was in 1891?
Elaine.[/quote]Thanks, I found the burial for Clara and her daughter (also daughter's first husband and first born child) but do not know who the other 1 month old is in the grave - had a quick look at birth mother for the 1 month old but doesn't seem connected. I am still struggling to find either Clara and Mary Ann on the 1891 census. I have gone through ancestry with a fine tooth comb!
I will continue.
