Hello i found a relative of mine, but the 1851 Cambridge ( Little Gransden) census is confusing . It reads as follows Isobella Wilson/Collins b1783 Head . Eliza Smith b 1816 wife . Emma Smith b 1848 daughter of Isobella , which would mean that she was 69 when she had Emma .Could Isobella be Eliza mother and Emma grandmother ?. Also Sabias Smith b 1852 as Isobella daughter and a Mary Collins b1791 mother I have tried to find Emma Smith with Eliza as her mom but nothing showing up . |

Sorry, can't look at it on Ancestry at the moment. Ancestry is "temporarily unavailable". |

1861 looks like Isabella is living alone. Mary has 'head' crossed out and replaced by 'wife'. Her occ. is thatcher's wife, presumably he is away/out so she was put as 'head' originally. |
