How careless, Trish! Off to look now.

Thanks Nell, and if you see a framed X-stitch anywhere it's mine:)

[Nell]

Oh dear, can't find them, had a good look about for Mauds born 1878 +/- 2 years, also for Lucys, no dice.

[Trish@Somerset]

Thanks anyway Nell, they must have thought it was the bailiffs knocking

Thanks Merry :):) Looks like Maria is Maud. Wonder where William was/was up to!

There is a william that dies in Thame reg district in 1883- he was 60 then though

[Merry]

Was he resurrected for 1901 though?..... :)

[Merry]

Jess's post made me realise something........if Lucy was listed as wife rather than head (because Wm was alive but not at home) then Ancestry have probably listed her and her children with the surname of the family before them on the census.

That's exactly what they have done and Lucy etc are recorded as Alyffe in Wooburn, Bucks!

Thanks Merry, you're a star:):)
