Campion, Victoria Louisa

Birth Name Campion, Victoria Louisa 1a
Gender female
Age at Death more than 13 years, 5 months, 3 days

Narrative

Victoria's age is recorded as 30 in the 1871 census. This is unlikely to be a different (older) Victoria. Her parents probably gave her age as "13" which was correct, but the enumerator wrote down "30" by mistake. Children were usually recorded in age order, but Victoria's entry is after her 20 year old sister Emma. There is no birth registered for an older Victoria. It is very unlikely she would still be single at 30. It is unusual to give 2 chidren the same name, unless the first one has died. It is unlikely that an Irish couple would move to England and have 1 child, then go to St Lucia. It is more likely they went to St Lucia from Ireland, then moved to England. Simon's prison record says he has 4 children, which is correct if there was only one Victoria.
