  • Notes 
    • First appears in 1891 census as Niece of John Simpson[S025]
      Assume other Ashburner is her mother

      Subsequent checks finds that mother is indeed Elizabeth Ashburner
      Elizabeth marries John Rigg in OND 1891
      In 1901 census Edith A is now Rigg
      It is possible that John Rigg is actually her father as they married relatively soon after her birth. [11/01/09]
