This could be her in 1891 although age is out a little but quite possible as she was a servant.

OOH christina sorry i seemed to have requested a reveiwe instead of reply button thank you i sort of thought that as Fred was a widow that she had gone to live in with his family as a servent!! because her Father John Tilson remarried in 1888 to a Hannah Dwyer {my g, Grand mother}and Emma Sarah wasnt on the 1891 with them thank you for looking and findind her for me regards Jean.
