Here are Maria and Elizabeth (now married) Black Lion Inn Blackfordby village leics


Maria Horspool 10 Billesdon Sister-in-law     
Dorothy Taylor 7 months Uttoxeter?? Staffordshire Daughter     
Elizabeth Taylor 18 Billesdon Wife   
William Taylor 30 Stubwood, Staffordshire Head  Licensed Victualler


Jemima was a servant to John Bates a hosiery manufacturer in Leics

Sarah was living alone in Billesdon - no address shown

Robert was living with the Loseby family in Billesdon.  His status is not shown (lodger, relative etc) and there is no occupation

Jane aged 12 is a servant for the Ogden family in Billesdon.  There is a James Horspool b 1843 shown as a servant but I'm not sure it's the right one as the family he is living with is also called Horspool and they are at Vicarage House Billesdon all working for the vicar.  However, there is no other match for him.  Given the ages of the other children, it is probably the right one and these are relatives


Albert Horspool 1 Billesdon Son   
Anne Horspool 36 Earl Shilton Leicestershire Wife     
Emily Horspool 2 Billesdon Daughter   
James Horspool 18 Billesdon Servant   
William T Horspool 4 Billesdon Son
