Thank you both for your help. I think the baby benjamin on the 1851 was actually Sarah's son. Another mystery of where they are on 1841 - it's a shame if she was a servant at just 13. Thanks again, Julie

Thanks for the 1861 Reg - I hadn't seen that before. I wonder where his wife Sophia was in 1851 or maybe just missed off.

Thanks Reg, our messages must have crossed! Does it give an address of where she is a servant?

ErikaH Report 10 Nov 2007 11:22

It's 'Hone ????' (Possibly Hill..but............)

Can't be far from the family .....she is on Page 27 of the census returns.the family are on Page 31.

I don't think the second word of the address is 'Farm'......
