I am trying to find information on the two sisters They were with their Mother Sarah in Aston Union Workhouse in 1891 census but I cannot find them after that I know Mary Ann lived until 1959 as she was my maternal grandmother she disappeared between 1891 and 1912 when she married ..
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Mary Ann & Sophia Shreeves

Thank you Bren for your prompt reply it amazed that I should have a reply so quick.
The only problem I have is that Mary Ann according to the birth certificate was the daughter of Sarah Shreeve nee Hollis the father was Vincent Shreeve.
Vincent and Sarah married 1877 his 3rd marriage he was born 1815 and died 1887 over time he fathered about 17 children. I think that rules the stepdaughter bit out but that they both disappear puzzles me .

Mnay thanks Bren Jon P
 
Re: Mary Ann & Sophia Shreeves

I think Bren's post means that Mary Ann is the stepdaughter of Edwin Hill,whom Sarah Shreeves married in 1893,6 years after Vincencent died.

In any Census the relationship is always to the head of the house, in this case Edwin
