I have a family here in 1841.... Whats your guess as to who's who to who? Anne Lines abt 1832 Herefordshire, England Winslow Herefordshire age 9. Elizabeth Lines abt 1806 Herefordshire, England Winslow Herefordshire age 35 Mary Lines abt 1771 Herefordshire, England Winslow Herefordshire age 70 Thomas Lines abt 1791 Herefordshire, England Winslow Herefordshire age 50 Gerri, age (old) lol

That's a tough one. Do you have any of them in 1851? I'd rekon Mary the mother, Thomas her son. Possibly Elizabeth her daughter, and the youngest belonging to Elizabeth. Of couse, I may be totally wrong. In 1851, Anne is with Elizabeth, so that assumption is probably right. Betty (as she is on 1851) is down as a Widow, so she might be Thomas' wife.

How about Mary Lines as grandmother, Thomas her son, Elizabeth her daughter in law and Anne the grandaughter (dau of Thomas and Elizabeth0. However, I know darn well that the obvious is not always the truth - could be any combination of family members! Maybe Mary has a much younger second husband...... Jacquie

Remember 1841 ages were usually rounded down to the nearest five years.
