Hi Jane Just working on that now. At the mo I am just enlarging the 1881 to confirm the ages for John and Sarah. Pen x images confirms John is down as 40 and Sarah as 30

Hi Penelope With the census information that you have given me then the family in the 1891 and the 1901 has got to be my family. Now I will have to write it down to get a clearer picture. Could I be cheeky and ask if you can find John and Sarah on the 51/ 61 or 71 census as it seems that their could possibly be a lot more children than we know about so far. Thanks again. Jane

Hi Have just found a marriage for John Hembrow and Sarah Rockett in 1844. Which means they must have been quite old when they had Ellen Anothe possibility would be that he married Sarah Sidford in Bridgewater in 1851 which is more likely

Well after checking the 1891image - it had been wrongly transcribed. Should of read Hembrow This one looks like they have been fibbing about their ages though ! 1901 census Name: John Hembrow Age: 55 Estimated birth year: abt 1846 Relation: Head Spouse's name: Sarah Gender: Male Where born: Stoke St Gregory, Somerset, England Civil parish: Stoke St Gregory Ecclesiastical parish: Burrow Bridge Town: Burrow Bridge County/Island: Somerset Country: England Registration district: Taunton Sub-registration district: North Curry ED, institution, or vessel: 13 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 62 Household Members: Name Age Frank Hembrow 13 John Hembrow 55 Maud Hembrow 13 Rhoda Hembrow 6 Sarah Hembrow 50 William Hembrow 18 Address - Burrow Bridge John is a farm labourer Pen x

Penelope Although the surname is spelt wrong the ages are about right so it could well be them. Thank you so much Jane
