Hiya Tommo

In 1861 at Sidmouth Road

Thomas Pidsley 20 M head b Sowton, Devon labourer in brickyard
Elizabeth Pidsley 21 M wife b Bampton, Devon
Lucy Anna 1 dau b Topsham, Devon

RG9/1386 folio 18 page 6

Next door is

John Pidsley 66 M head b Topsham Devon ag lab
Mary Pidsley 62 M wife b Littleham Deavon

Could this be his father?

In 1871 we have at Stanton Drew Somerset

Thomas Pidsley 30 M head b London
Elizabeth Pidsley 31 M wife b Brampton Devon
Lucy Hannah Pidsley 10 dau b Topsham Devon
Elizabeth Pidsley 9 dau b Gosport Hampshire
Thomas Pidsley 7 son b Gosport Hampshire
William Pidsley 5 son b Lewes Sussex
Sylvia Sarah 6m dau b London

RG10/2468 folio 63 page 13

I have found the 1891 image you were on about I'm just checking futher

Hiya Tommo

It definitely looks like the same family in 1891

Thomas Pidsley 50 W head b St may le clist? Stationary engine driver
Elizabeth Kingston 29 M dau b Devonshire
Frederick Kingston 43 M son in law b Devonshire quarryman
William F Kingston 3 grandson b Northamptonshire
Rosa Elizabeth Kingston 2 granddau b Northamptonshire
Emily M Pidsley 19 S dau b Northamptonshire
Elizabeth M Pidsley 2 grandau b Tidenham Gloucs

RG12/4336 folio 134 page 2

I wonder if Emily is actually a daughter in law?

Will keep on looking

Hiya Tommo

There is a marriage for a Sylvia Pidsley to Albert Mapps 2/4 1890 Chepstow 11a 25

On the 1891 & 1901 census she gives her age as 25 & 35

In 1881 she is with her aunt Mary H Liscombe (surname Ridler crossed out and replaced with Liscombe)

If this is the same Sylvia it cannot be her in the 1891 census with her father
