Rattle!
Now that could be somthing. In the same Grave as Thomas and jane is a Robert Rattle Collins who from the age I assume is a son, could of perhaps of had his mothers maiden name as his sons middle name..

Looks as if Jane was in a Workhouse in the 1871 census
Name: Jane Scrivener
Age: 12
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1859
Relation:
Gender: Female
Where born: Hadleigh, Suffolk, England
Civil parish: Semer
Town: Semer
County/Island: Suffolk
Country: England
Registration district: Cosford
Sub-registration district: Hadleigh
ED, institution, or vessel: Cosford Union Workhouse
Household schedule number: 1

Also listed with her was Elizabeth Scrivener aged 8 ....perhaps her sister?

Wasn't the work house quite a bad place for someone to end up? Or am I thinking to far back..? On the marriage between her and thomas, was her father stated?

This I think is Jane in the 1861 census. Looking at the actual census image the surname is 'Scrivener'. Her mother's age is hard to read so might not be as transcribed. It says her mother is unmarried
