Hi Margaret Thanks very much for your help. For next time I get stuck how did you find the mistranscription- looking on 1901 Census Online or guessing likely alternatives, or something more subtle? John

She's mis-transcribed as Sarah A. Mells.

I've been trying to find a Sarah A(lice) Mills on the 1901 Ancestry site but drawn a blank. I can find her on the 1901 Census Online Index but am not a member there to get the details. Could anyone help with an address / image ref etc so I can find her on Ancestry? 1901 Census Online Index info is Sarah A Mills aged 26 born in Yorks, Wadsley living in Yorks West Riding,Stocksbridge Thanks John
