Alexandra, You can search the 1881 census by occupation on Ancestry, and on family search you can add the head of household to a search. That's how I found them, searching by first names only. Rose

Alexandra, That is the 1881 census. 1) Waight is an uncommon name prone to transcription errors. 2) People are commonly known by the 2nd names. 3) Edith Florence was registered in the Jun qtr. That means she was born sometime between March and June. 12 months is fine. Rose
