The 1851 census for Sweffling shows Hannah Fish (b 1825, Sweffling) as the wife of Alfred Chambers. The 1861 census shows Hannah Chambers as a widow servant and her children James born 1846, Sweffling, and Hannah, born 1848, Sweffling as boarders in Lambeth St Mary. The children are now called Chambers too. Jethro born 1850 appears to have died as a Chambers in 1852. Are we agreed that in the 1851 census the Fish people ought to be called Chambers?

Thanks Gwyn Obvious isn't it? I didn't think of going back but having found that 10 years later they were Chambers that was enough. The transcriber has made a lot of mistakes and I just assumed it was yet another! Clive |
