Thats them in 81 ...

Sarah Report 31 Oct 2007 21:30

This looks a possibility, although his age is slightly out:

118, Belgrave Gate, Leicester:

Robert Horspool, boarder, M, 30, tailor, b Leicester
Sarah Ann, wife, M, 27, b ditto

The head of the household was a Phillip Billington, shoemaker. I think he was probably Sarah's father since there was a marriage in Jun qtr 1866 at Leicester of a Sarah Ann Billington. On the same page was a Robert Horsepool
