Hi Christine2,i think i might have got the answer,Sarah Jane Atkin senior born 1844,i think she had a sibling called Emma Atkin born 1861 died 1931,even though its a big age gap the mother might have had lots of children.this Emma then married James Allender who had children one being Annie Allender.who later was living with Sarah Jane Atkin.

That sounds promising Janette:)
