they are all described in the census as son or daughter in law.

As the ages mean that definition is not as we would use it now and I could not find any appropriate marriage I made the assumption of adopted.

Son in law was also sometimes used for step son so possibly for adopted as well

Researching:
Liverpool (Cartwright, Chambers, Miller), Todmorden (Sutcliffe, Mallison), Abergavenny (Watkins, Prosser)

Thank you Lancashire Ann I never though of looking at it like that.

The good thing about asking questions on here is that other people can show you different ways of approaching things and ways of looking at things. Often they see things in a document that you have missed. These ideas often help develop new skills for doing family history.. So thank you everyone for all your help.

I hope this makes sense.

Happy Christmas

Jane
