Ringa or Aunty Ringy as she was affectionately known by her English relatives, was allegedly born at sea as her family immigrated to the USA and was named after the ship 'Seringapatam" [story from and elderly UK relative}. Though subsequent US census and the UK 1911 census Scunthorpe [RG14PN20080 RG78PN1201 RD424 SD2 ED13 SN27] give her birthplace as Davenport IOWA.

There are many variants and spellings of her forename. On the UK 1901 census [Scunthorpe Lincolnshire RG13/3103/f51] she was recorded under the name Victoria and on the 2 May 1911 ships manifest as Bridget [Philadelphia Passenger Lists, 1800-1945].
