Hello Tricia! That is a definate possibility! sarah Ann watson's death! cos the age fits just right i have sarah Ann glass on the 1881 census and she is living with a james watson, then there is a marrige that appears for the pair of them in june 1881! and then i can't seem to find them after that!! so i think that has got to be it... that sarah died! i doubt she went back to ireland! as her father was living in yorkshire, her mum had died and all her other brother's and sisters are living in salford, apart from one that i can't find in '81, '91' or '01 Thanks!! Alison

One possibility - they went back to Ireland or one of them died I'm not saying this is her but the age fits with your revised 46 in 1901. Do you know anymore about them?? Any children's names at all?? Did you find them on 1891 ? I can't spot them. Name: Watson, Sarah Ann Record Type: Deaths Age at death: 30 Quarter: March Year: 1885 District: Salford County: Greater Manchester Lancashire Volume: 8d Page: 65 (click to see others on page)

Knowing the Irish, as I do, it wouldn't surprise me!!!! Do you know where they were married, have you seen the Marriage certificate? It could be that William is his middle name! Regards Steph
