I came to this challenge late, but isn't the ages between Rachel and Sarah a bit on the narrow side    Ages are a bit all over the place anyway.

The L is Pearl/Peart is not crossed on the census but the page is so awful, it could be either I suppose.

I'll have a closer look if you want me to have a stab at the address and stuff if this is your family.

btw, I want a SQUELCH too

I just nipped off to put the dinner on and WOW! Thank You!

1881 Sarah is 38
1871 Sarah is 23
1861 Sarah is 18

mmm and very close I agree with her mother on 1861, and a young widow too!  What were they doing to their men?

[Boongie Pam]

On 1871, which also has terrible writing Sarah's age could be 28?

Pam, had a look on 1871, could easily be 28 and I think she's a Provision Dealer.

And Rachel is a Wainscot maker I think.  And Thomas is a warehouse boy.

Just washed me specs!
