I couldn't make it out either ! Looked on the 1861, she is down as MARY, it is her, same family members,dates etc. In that there is nothing under disability. Also on the 1861 is a RACHEL aged 13 who is not mentioned on the 1871.

Hi Richard, I don't think its anything to do with a disability to me, it looks like 'Cheshire'. Could she have been born in Cheshire not Staffordshire? Sam x
