1851
At 6 Gloucester St., Liverpool
Jeremiah Winder Head 22 Publican b. Church, Lancashire
Margaret Winder Wife 21 b. Liverpool, Lancashire
Margt Winder Daur 6 Mo b. Liverpool, Lancashire
Thomas Foster Brother??? Unm. 19 Watchmaker b. Liverpool, Lancashire
Mary Buckley Servant Unm. 28 Servant b. Lynnally, Offaly, Ireland
Margt Emery Servant Unm. 14 Servant b. Ireland

Relationships getting a little confusing :? Think Margaret Winder (nee Foster) b. abt 1830 is Thomas' daughter. Therefore, the Margaret Winder with him in 1861 is actually his granddaughter rather than niece?

me too daniel, the more i read the more confusing it becomes trying to work out whos who!!!
but did they have birth certificates in those days or would it be better to get the marriage cert? which would give me the most info ? and what inform ation would it give? i know the most recent ones give both parents names, as i am actually trying to find the parents of thom as foster (john alfreds father) now i am confusing matters even more!!!!!
