Hi Christine,

That's why I didn't post the info before - I have not been able to connect them yet !

However, we only have the 1891 to show that Sarah was the eldest child - there could have been more who had left home by then!

Mary Ann could fit?

It still is a 'possible' connection.

I think this could well be Joseph - he did have a son called Irving on 1901 and this one has Irving as father - It is a fairly unusual name?
