Me again, Jess - Did you come across any other SKURLS in the 1901 - all living in the Rotherhithe/Bermondsey/St. Olave area of London. I couldn't find any on the online 1901, but you never know your luck. Rita

Jess - Thanks for the look-up. I always forget the 1891, I must have a mental blockage. Could you do a look-up on the 1891? If so and it is possible could you send me images of both censes. Regards Rit

Beckie, the 1871 that makes sense as sarah was still young (13?) Harriet was younger, although where she is , is a mystery

Elizabeth Sparks abt 1821 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Head St Michael Warwickshire Sarah Sparks abt 1858 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Daughter St Michael Warwickshire address house 2 Spen St. She appears to have an occupation although what is is i am unsure. She does, however say she is married, not widowed. ------------------------------------------ or, just to confuse, there are these two Ann Sparkes abt 1808 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Wife Holy Trinity Warwickshire George Sparkes abt 1814 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Head Holy Trinity Warwickshire

Beckie, the 1861 for clarity Elizabeth Sparkes abt 1822 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Wife Coventry St John Warwickshire George Sparkes abt 1854 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Son Coventry St John Warwickshire Harriet Sparkes abt 1860 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Daughter Coventry St John Warwickshire James Sparkes abt 1820 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Head Coventry St John Warwickshire James Sparkes abt 1851 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Son Coventry St John Warwickshire Sarah Sparkes abt 1858 Coventry, Warwickshire, England Daughter Coventry St John Warwickshire

Thank yo Jess, that gives me Ann from her birth in 1811 to death in 1895. The Matthew in the information you found for me is my GGrandfather so it's her. I don't know why she's Ellen as there has never been any suggestion of a second name. Maybe it was Ann in a broad Cumberland accent!! Thanks once again. Derek

Derek, i wonder why she is using a different name! Must be her >>Ellen Blenkin abt 1812 Bolton, Cumberland, England Head Auckland St Andrew Durham James Blenkin abt 1849 Green Head, Northumberland, England Son Auckland St Andrew Durham Matthew Blenkin abt 1852 Green Head, Northumberland, England Son Auckland St Andrew Durham Robert Blenkin abt 1847 Green Head, Northumberland, England Son Auckland St Andrew Does the address tally?
