on the 1871 census for a Joseph Kemp Head born 1796 Dagenham Essex RG10 1338 page 29 I cannot for the life of me work out who belongs to who, I know Joseph and Ann are a married couple, and it says Son George, Son John, Daughter Hannah, Daughter Sarah, but who belongs to the Grandson John born 1865 and whos Son is the Nephew Henry Smith born 1842 can somebody please have a look and put me out of my misery thanks.I think I need a rest from this |

I would imagine that the John Kemp, grandson aged 6, is the son of the married son John who is 47 years old. The nephew could belong to either a brother or sister of Joseph Kemp or a brother or sister of his wife. I'm not certain but I think Sarah might be the wife of John aged 47 (there are two little marks next to 'Daughter' which might mean 'daughter in law') and therefore mother to John aged 6 (this might not be right but buying the birth certificate for the 6 year old would tell you his parents names).
