Help reading census image please

[Pilgarlic]

Hello

I need help in reading the place of birth for Sarah Joseph nee Hipwood on the 1851 census. Ancestry.co.uk gives her place of birth as Bath, Somerset in 1851. Is that what it says on the census image ?

She is living with her husband Frances Joseph and children in Lambeth, Surrey in 1841. She is given as being born in Surrey. Obviously this does not tie up with the 1851 census data of Somerset.

Thankyou in advance

Somerset(shire), Bath.


I wouldnt worry if 1841 says 'Born in County' - often people / enumerators just said 'Yes'  .... it would be good if she was consistant in any later census tho ....

Thanks Newf

Well done 
Yes i can see now why the sh are on the end of the word Somerset.
Sarah died between 1851 and 1861 i believe, so does not appear on any further census.
