Also listed is a Charles Barrett, an unmarried 24 yr old who is listed as brother. Any ideas as to how he could be Sam's brother, i don't believe Sam's mother remarried and as far as we know Maria (his wife ) was a Pegg, also from bulkington.

	Hi Darren, The only way to be sure is to send for the "brother's" birth certificate. There are many mistranscriptions on the 1881 census so that is a possibility. But it may be that Sam's Mum married twice. The birth cert will answer some of the questions. Hope this helps, Gwynne
