Hi i have just been checking some information i have been given and i am a little confused. On the 1901 census it states Elizabeth Lawrence (wife) and Elizabeth Gallaher as head. There is a male Richard Lawrence who is of age to be the husband to the wife and father the children. Could you give me your views please. 1901 ref RG13/465/81/4 Thankyou Jen |

Hi Jennifer It looks to me as if the Gallagher entry is on its own. If you look under 'Head' by her name on top of the page, it looks as if there is a ditto mark by Richard. And the marks at the side of their names seem to show that they are of two different households. What do you think? |

Hi again. The number on the schedule is different though. If you go to the previous page you will see other people listed as living at #5 as well. |

Glad to have been of some small help. It is great when you prove a hunch or get something confirmed. Good luck with the rest of yours. Maggie |

Thankyou will try and look into the Elizabeth Gallaher and see if she is related somehow. Thanks again Jen |
