	I think I have a great aunt who managed to get 2 entries on 1901 census, one with her family and one as a visitor.

It was known that she was married and widowed before she married my GGrandfathers brother and emigrated. Her married name was given to me as O'Brian. I think I have found her on the 1881 census for Stockton on Tees, surname Brian, and in the same house is 'mother in law' Ellen Colbert, married, 38, born Ireland. But on the same census also for Stockton on Tees are Edward Colbert , 47, wife Ellen Colbert, 42 both born in Waterford. and family. All the names are correct. Is it possible?
