Searching for sarah orme in 1891 census. She is born in 1820 in Lancashire. Sometimes previous census returns state she was born in newton and in 1881 says Newton Le willows. In 1841 she lives in winwick, 1851 in Aspull, 1861 & 1871 & 1881 in Wigan. In the 1881 census she is living with her son and her husband died in 1874 in Platt Lane, wigan, Lancashire. Struggling to find her in 1891 census and hoping you can help. Sometiome sorme has been miscribed to orm, oline, hormes and I am wondering if in 1891 there is a mistranscription and that is why i can't find her. Lynn
