1841 census for North Cave
(HO 107, piece 1217, book 5, folio 30, page 6 - 3rd line from bottom)
How do you read Mary's surname? And can you find her in 1851?
A bit of an odd household -
Esther Fenton & Sophia Botterill were sisters (nee Holt)
Elizabeth Oxtoby was the married daughter of Thomas & Esther Fenton.
Sophia was the second wife of John Botterill and John Botterill junior was his grandson (illegitimate son of his daughter Emma.)
As yet, I have no idea where Mary fits in .
I think the first Mrs Botterill died in 1820 - I don't know when John married Sophia, whether they had any children, whether Sophia had also been married before.
John died in 1843, Sophia remarried in 1850 and in 1851 census there is just she and her husband in the household.
Grateful for any assistance.
