Lydia's maiden name was Young.........so that is the correct birth reg for Ellen.

Thank you for that info Dea. I will look into it.

Could this be another child - if so, it 'could' put the family in the Somerset area around 1841 ??

Probably no connection but 'just in case' :

Thank you so much for your time everyone.......i think i will give up on the 1841 census records.

This line of Masters are all new to me so it will "hopefully" be fun researching them

Thank you.....Prickles :-D

They must be in Wiltshire or on their way to London as Thomas was born 1841 in Holborn.

There are quite a number missing parishes on the 1841 census. Have a look here to see what is missing:-
