[eddyjack]

thanks very much for everyones help it is very much appreciated but i am a little confused because i never found the thomas or sara before just wondering why they all were not in the workhouse together or am i following the wrong line thanks again

Hallo, it seems Thomas might be Henry in 1861 as they'd be the same age.
Sarah was 5 in 1841, so by 1861 when her brothers are in the workhouse, she would be 25 and either married or working. Of course she might have died too.

[samesizedfeet]

Sarah aged 5 in 1841 would have been a sister to John (child of Thomas and Magaret) so I shouldn't think there would have been a need for her to go in the workhouse following John's death.

It seems very likely she was their elder sister, working as a domestic, which is what most girls did from about 12 or 13.
