It seems to be him, same mother but according to his birth record his father was Egbert Sheaf, seaman in merchant service.. Aaron Sheaf WAS married to Mary Ann Goodall, but somehow he has remarried Amelia Sage in 1867, 2 years earlier than Egbert Thomas Sheafs birth.. Mary Ann Sheaf is on the 1871 1881 census with all the other children, no sign of husband Aaron. no sign of Mary Ann with her children and 3 year old son Egbert in 1871 which is very odd.. Has she married Egbert Sheaf between 1867-1869? maybe she didn't have to, since she was already a Sheaf.. bizarre :-S :-S
