  • Notes 
    • The 1939 Register records Amelia’s date of birth as 29 April 1882 however her entry in the GRO Birth Index and in the baptism register confirm she was born in 1881.

      Amelia is the head of household in the 1921 England census; she is recorded as married but her husband, John Arthur Bentley, is not enumerated with her. The youngest child recorded on this census was born in 1913 (9 Croft Road, Upper Parkstone, Poole, Class: RG15, Piece: 10168, Schedule: 212). She is also enumerated, married, but without her husband in the 1939 Register (39, Croft Road, Poole, Dorset, Class: RG101, Piece: 6923E). It therefore seems likely that Amelia and her husband, John Arthur, separated some time after 1913.
