One family has been recorded twice at different addresses in Gloucester - def the same family! Also - maybe nothing to do with mine , hopefully just the same name , but the enumerator across the occ column has printed - THIS FAMILY IN A SHOCKING STATE. Has anyone come across these types of things before? Jan - not in a shocking state!

	I found a family on the 1881 twice. If I remember correctly, they had a shop - perhaps they were recorded as being on both streets at their corner shop.
