OK... Mary Parkes married John Rollason and he is on BCC here
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =487469107
In the notes it gives the 1881 census for 18 Beet Street.
At no. 17 are

Thomas Parkes head mar 50 general labourer RR
Mary Ann ditto wife mar 49 RR
Mary ditto dau mar 20 nail maker RR
Sophia ditto dau unm 20 servant domestic (? unemployed) RR
James ditto son 16 general labourer RR
Jane ditto dau 1 RR

What do you think? Mary and Sophia were 11 months in the 1861 census so Mary would have been 21 when she married, not 22. And the 1881 says she is married but that could be a mistake.
