Hollie, before we go any further, just a recap as things are not making sense 

1871 - RG10/2816/86/31  St. Mary Stafford

James Oatun  27  lab  b. Staffs
Elizabeth        27         b. Wolverhampton
George            5                        ditto
ANNE BOOTH  lodger  mar.  40   b. Stafford
Henry Booth  son  17  Shoemaker         ditto
Elizabeth                2                              ditto
John Inskip  lodger  20  Engine cleaner  ditto
Edward Snow  boarder  2                b. Hanley staffs.

1881 - RG11/523/100/20 (not 26 as you had written)  Kent Road, St. George Martyr, Southwark

Henry MOSELEY  27  Bootmaker  b. Stafford
Selena                25                            ditto
Elizabeth              5                      b. Surrey
Martha                 3                              ditto
Selena                 8m?                          ditto
ANN BOOTH  mother-in-law  mar  46  Housekeeper  b. Stafford
Elizabeth Booth  sister  12                                                    ditto

Unless Henery has changed his name from Booth to Moseley this is her son-in-law & Selena is Ann's daughter 

She's not with the Moseley's in 1891 who are still in Surrey.  Can't find her or Elizabeth in 1891...bit of a mystery unless she died (nothing with any certainty is showing on FreeBMD)

I'm not sure if this mystery has been solved, but I have been looking into my Sharmans. I've come across some of my Sherman's living in Stoke of Trent with a Snow family.
I thought I'd mention, as the name Snow popped up in this post also.....

H Hydes,

Violet married Samuel Smith and had 8 children. I won't name them as some are living, I am happy to say. But hopefully that helps answer your question.

Violet Smith has shown up in some of my family records relating to Edgar Sharman.
I'd love to chat to see if there are any links. Lots of your info matches with mine.....

I am currently researching my Hakesleys. I also have John Hakesley marrying Maria Baron.
I have the family in 1901 and 1911, but can't trace their addresses prior yet. Johns father was James? I have his marriage and children's baptisms....

Hi there
Were George and Caroline Sharman a match for you?
They may be the same as in my tree.

How does this searcg fit with fact that John who married Janet has father unknown on his marriage?

I can see an adopted child on1881 who;d fit the bill

Yes, he was recorded as adopted child. His birth mother was Martha Ellen. She gave birth to him before marrying her husband George Leishman. George must have taken John on as his own adopted child.
I have Johns birth certificate to confirm his mum.
She was a servant at the time of Johns birth.
I also found a John Young of the same age on the census living with Matilda Hassall but just can't link this to my family tree unless she was looking after him whilst his mum Martha Ellen was at work.
