I know Martha is down as the sister but It looks like James married the servant they had in 1881!! Name Age in 1891 Birthplace Relationship to head-of-house Civil parish County View Census?

Gail.

thanks all for help i dont know if they are links will start reseaching thank again

Hi Andrea, in 1901 it looks as though George is living near to, but not in, the household of Eliza. It also seems that there is one other person in Eliza's house not named "Sawyer" (I am using the decoder, you would have to pay to look at the household). Here they are in Lambeth: Forenames Lastname Age Where Born Occupation Geo SAYERS 13 Brixton Lon Printer Reading Boy --------------------------- Eliza SAYERS 51 Sussex Hastings Charwoman Martha SAYERS 42 Sussex Hastings Laundress Charles SAYERS 18 Lon Brixton General Labourer Edwin SAYERS 16 Lon Brixton General Labourer Grace SAYERS 12 Lon Brixton Eliza SAYERS 10 Lon Brixton Daisy SAYERS 8 Lon Brixton
