Thank you all for your quick replies, think thats them, thank you. :-)

Andy, im not sure about that last post, I thought they only had four children, one of which was my nan onita, I dont know who those other people are? are they their children do you know?

The 1891 census that Andrew has posted is Caroline with her parents and siblings before she married.

Yes pricklyholly, thats her, minnie is her sister, there was also another sister called celia and a brother george....this is confusing coz some of them have got the same name....I dont know who's who.........so is this right? my great nan CAROLINE BURGOYNE, her parents names were also caroline and george? and her siblings were percy, george, thomas.rhoda, joseph, william and edward?

I cant believe this, it goes on forever.....do you know how I can find out about relatives who maybe still living? Im looking more for onitas husbands side, she married james speller, I have found out his brothers names but want to know if they had children and so on. They were from Kensignton as far as I know.

To find out about children...look on freebmd for their marriages, then use the same site to look for possible births

Thank you flick, I also find that site confusing but I'l try.

Male's details not transcribed

I have most info on onita, she married james frederick speller,they only had my dad and uncle colin, james had 3 sisters and 6 brothers who I want to look up. Ive just been on that website and its baffling me, I want to find out if any of them were married and had children but theres so many to go through, I think ill leave it there now as its hard work lol. Thanks for your help.

So it would seem then.........that Onita was actually born Eira O Gough.

Yes she was prickly holly, here parents were john gough and caroline burgoyne.
