I have from 1861
Emma Dungworth 24
Frank Dungworth 1 week
Thomas Dungworth 24
Wilford Dungworth 2 (Wilfrid)

I believe that a William Henry was born about 1869 as well.

I have seen some of the above in G.R. single line census but how many of them show up together in 1871 please, because they certainly aren't together in 1881.

Many thanks,
Frances

Was Thomas born in Sheffield? If not where?

Is this the family you are referring to in 1861?

Thankyou all. At least Emma and the children all fit but the father Thomas is missing - progress at last!

Frances

Well done Joan, I was aware that Emma was in the workhouse but didn't realise there was a daughter Agnes. More research required.

Thank you,
Frances

Frances,

The previous message didn't mention that Thomas was listed as "Unmar" but that could be a mistake. We all know that the census records aren't perfect!

Finally!

There is also this Thomas in 1871, and he is a saw handle maker as is the Thomas in 1861.

There's also a Thomas Dungworth aged 30 living in Sheffield with his uncle, Joseph Jackson. Could that be right? It doesn't say whether Thomas is married or not, nor what his occupation is.

Here's Emma in 1901, file cutter, widowed--there is also an Elizabeth Dungworth around the same age (possible sister-in-law).
