Wow! You are a star! Do you do this for a living. A servant at 13? Who needs Downton! :-D My grandfather (on the other side) I am searching had a maid to look after him. How strange :-D

Sarah wasn't with her parents Jacob and Mary Ann in 1891, as she was working as a servant. Interesting that the boarder where she worked was in the gas tube trade, as was the 'single' Jacob Amos from 1881.

On Sarah's marriage certificate it say Jacob deceased in 1899. Profession states Jacob as a mechanic but she marries an iron worker which fits in with the Amos family.

I keep coming back to this Jacob Amos, even though he says he's single.

In the 1871 census for the same family, Jacob's birthplace is given as Wolverhampton:

Have you put John and Sarah into your tree? I can't see them when I Search Trees on this site.

That is the best place to look for other members who may have a connection to you.

Very grateful for your help if you have a John Cornelius Dickinson or Sarah Amos in your trees. They were married in 1899 in Wednesbury.

Sarah's father was Jacob and John's father had the same name. :-)
