It looks to me as though they were just looking after her while her mother was away (heaven knows where!!!). |

Maureen can I ask your advise please ? Would Maggie have been living with the family in 101Lees Rd or might they just have been looking after her for the day ? I dont know how these census work |

O Connor !! how can that be - thats them though . William , Cecilia John Leo and I forgot they had a girl Maggie ! Could it be a mistake on the census and they put O connor instead of Connor ...? |

Sarah Connor died 12 April 1935 from 105 Lees Rd Mossley age 65. William Connor was her husband at time and informant of death .William was a general labourer on his sons birth cert. and a textile labourer on Sarahs death cert .Reads William Connor on gravestone and wife Sarah . No mention of Cecili/Celia anywhere. |

I must be blinder than ever! I don't see them in 1901 and I can't find William and Sarah in 1911. |
