Unless she took her mother's maiden name, and perhaps she could be George Wyatts???

O right, must be 1 of the Wyatt girls daughters then... so John Robinson in 1871 could be the grandson then???

Julie, it says she's their granddaughter.

With it being 1841, she might be no relation at all or she might belong to the mother's previous marriage or is a neice.

lol at Fanny being John, not really likely unless it's a massive mistranscription.. if it had been in the 2001 census I'd have said anything is possible but not likely back then ;-) Fanny may have died or it might have been a nickname (at 16 she might have gone into service or been married even)

Sorry, I spelt the name wrong, it is in fact Rachael Savery in the 1841 census, district Gloucestershire. The rest of the family are Wyatts.

I can only see one Rachel Savery in 1841.......aged 40.

Unless the spelling is not as you have posted it..........

If you wish anyone to check these records, you will have to give us more info

Reg

I've 'lost' children and assumed they'd died and then further on my investigations they have popped up in extended families i.e. nieces and nephews to married sisters. Another child that turned up in one of my families turned out to be a child of a neighbour but who lived with my family from about 8 years old until late teens. His family didn't die or move, but my family did move and the neighbour's child moved with them for some unknown, never to be known, reason.

Hi All, thanks for replying... I have a Rachel Savery aged 4 pop up in my 1841 census, but no longer in my 1851 census, but in this census I have a Fanny Robinson pop up, age 6, never to pop up again. Then in 1871 I have a John Robinson pop up aged 28. Could John be Fanny???

Come on Julie -post us the details!
lol

Laura

I have this quite a lot on my ancestry info - can be useful as it's often nieces/nephews/cousins etc and can be a clue into another branch

....or mother's children from a previous marriage?
I have sometimes seen these later listed as children of the 2nd husband in census....just to confuse us.

Gwyn

Or kids being looked after by the mother of the household.

Or adopted even, perhaps. Definitely check the original to be sure that they're actually their sons/daughters and like has been said, 1841 doesn't give relationships (more's the pity).

They could be nephews, nieces or grandchildren to the Head of Household perhaps?.
K

Who are they? Where are they? Which census?

Can't offer suggestions without seeing the details..............

Reg

Have you looked at the image because it should give the relationship to the head of the household.

In a census with my ancestory family there are a couple of children with different surnames to the family name which puzzles me... and they both have different surnames to each other and they haven't got there mother's maiden name? Any suggestions???
