Lindsey the 1881 census for George Thoms Steven with dau Hannah born 1864 is missing on Ancestry. They have them transcribed together but only the two children Hannah and George Junior are on it on page 38 I think. When you go back a page it is entry 199 and when you turn the page it is household 205.

Yes it can seem difficult. but I'm sure shr was Harvey.

I think the best way to prove Lydias maiden name is to buy one of the younger children birth certs ?

You could ask Michael if he has done this, but I don't think he could have.

I think Michael read Selina as Stevens and presumed that was Lydia[s maiden name, an easy mistake to make.
