From 1841 census, Rebecca did have sister Mary.

Couldn't make out if the line separating each family was above or below her, bit of a coincedence her having the name "Game"
maybe she was visting both !

Walker William James H 52 Paddington 1a 23

cassy

EDIT

can anyone find him in 1901??

If Mary Game was a visitor she would not have been put above the Head of the household.

True, it was just the name that caught my eye!

Cassy

Witney is in Oxfordshire and a long way from Bath.

It is 64 miles from Witney to Bath.

Scrap that one then!
