One final request for information on Alice Maude Cheffings born 1874 Shelton, Staffs whose surname spelling has several variations.  I'm trying to find Alice in the 1891 census and found the following on Family Search:

Galway Terrace, Hunslet, Yorks
Alice M Cheffines, 17 (1874) born Staffs, servant
Fredrick Foster, 3 (1888) born Yorks

This record is  incomplete, Alice is clearly not a servant to young Fredrick whose parents are missing from the record.   Help please to find the full household

Hi Gerry, I see the record on family search but it is not showing up on A....y, I also note it is on FindMyPast but I'm not a member.

I think I have found the entry in Ancestry

1891 census RG12/3666/64 page 28
Fred Foster Head 67 Provisions Dealer
Alice Foster Wife 40
Frederick Foster Son 3
Alice M Chaffins Servant 11

The entry is very feint so it's difficult to read and although Alice's age is given as 11, I think it does actually read 17
