Think I may have accidently just  found Anna on the 1851 census, she's an Ann Scoffin from Whatton, born about 1832 working as a housemaid in Car Colston.

Well done Maggie, that's them.

No, I've had no luck so far with Maria & John yet either.

Henry & Marys children's baptisms are as follows:-

Oliver 26.4.1844
William 13.9.1829
Elizabeth 12.6.1831
John 3.3.1833
George 24.12.1837
Mary 15.12.1839
Alice 30.1.1842

Wow, Maggie and BG - thank you so so much! This is fantastic!

I had a bit of information about some of Sarah's siblings, but not as much as you have given me!

Can you find anything about a Harriet Scoffins, born about 1826, possibly to Sarah? She goes on to marry John Gonville/Grenville (?) Fisher and move to Thurlby...

And is there any mention of the MASON family connection? Being cheeky, I know!

Hi treegirl,

Glad to help - my head is spinning with Scoffins 
Will look for Harriet now 

Think I may have accidently just  found Anna on the 1851 census, she's an Ann Scoffin from Whatton, born about 1832 working as a housemaid in Car Colston.

BG - Amazing what happens accidentally....... I was following your lead and looking in '51 for Anna, didn't find her but found a MARY Scoffins b. abt. 1831 in Whatton working as a House Servant in Sibthorpe, Notts.  Then I found possible Anna in 1871, listed as Ann Scoffins, a visitor at the home of a Richard Culley.  Ann gives her occupation as Housekeeper, she is unmarried, born in Whatton.

Sarah became Holmes on marriage as we know, so I've just looked for their children and have found two in Whatton, but not Harriett as yet, these would tie in with the couples marriage on 8th August 1825, well just about hehe!!! :-

Abraham 4.4.1826
Thomas 26.7.1829
