Yes,
The one Margaret is the daughter of Andrews brother William and married Henry P Gatrell

Do you think I can go with this?

Pity we can't find the 1871 census

Oops - we crossed in posting and I've edited.

There were 2 Margarets born 1864 in Sunderland, I'll have another check

Chris, I don't want to be a spoilsport but I do now think that Margaret may be from the other Herring family - you'd mentioned her after I'd made the comment about re-named siblings. I can't find a Jane and a MArgaret in the same family

EDIT: BUT - there are these 2 births:

Births Dec 1863
HERRING Margaret Sunderland 10a 424

Births Dec 1864
HERRING Margaret Sunderland 10a 448

But it looks right what the others have found so far
Jane Ann married Thomas Atkinson and sister Margaret (2nd Margaret after 1st Margaret died 1854) Thomas Coatsworth

I think I can be pretty sure with this

I have been searching Chris..........but not having any luck either!!

Would be good to find the 1871 census of the whole family Andrew&Hannah, I've tried many times

edit: Andrew & Hannah both died of typhus in 1872 at 8 Grey Street

I've checked the 1861 and 1871 for Margaret's family, and there was no Jane Ann .........

Children of Andrew & Hannah Prest:
George Herring
1846 – 1919
Margaret Herring
1848 – 1854
Isabella Herring
1850 – 1916
John Herring
1854 – 1909
Jane Ann Herring
1856 –
Henry Angus Herring
1858 – 1936
Mary Herring
1866 – 1870

Did Margaret have a sister Jane A?

HERRING Margaret Sunderland 10a 448

Regards Vera

Very strange !

Regards Vera

Cippy, it's not unusual for a family to give a later born child the same name as a sibling that had died earlier.
