I am looking for family details of Assem Jervis who appears in the 1881 census in Stoke upon Tern. He was born in 1866 in Stoke upon Tern.
I would appreciate any assistance
Best Wishes

In 1891 there is a Anna Jervis, 25, born Stoke Upon Tern, living in household of William Nagington.
I think you need to see the original records of the 1881 and 1891 entries. I suspect there may be an error of transcription.

Also think there's a transcription error. Stoke upon Tern comes under Mt Drayton reg dist. Below is a contender.
Births Jun 1867
JERVIS Ann Mt. Drayton 6a 767 mother's maiden name Maddocks.

'Assem' is clearly Assem and male, but looks to become Anna in same household 10 years later. So I think the person writing up the 1881 just could not read the original entry and has written what he thought it should be.

Thanks Chempat, Please could you give me the full details of the 1891 entry.
Many thanks
