Hi Joanne, a servant helped out around the house or farm, she could have been a kitchen maid etc. Alice on the 1901 census was working as a servant for a doctor & his wife so she probably did housework. This is Frances Blaxter with her family in 1871 before she married John.... Name: Frances Blaxter Age: 14 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1857 Relation: Daughter Father's name: Anthony Mother's name: Elijabeth Gender: Female Where born: Weasenham, Norfolk, England Civil Parish: Weasenham St Peter County/Island: Norfolk Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Disability: View image Registration district: Mitford Sub-registration district: Litcham ED, institution, or vessel: 7 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 18 Household Members: Name Age Anna Blaxter 3 Anthony Blaxter 51 Elijabeth Blaxter 49 Frances Blaxter 14 George Blaxter 20 Harriett Blaxter 6 James Blaxter 10 John Blaxter 25 Georgina.
