Hi

 I wondering whether you had the right family on the 1861 census? as I have found a Harriet and William Davies in Oswestry, with a Sarah Davies as a daughter, also on the 1881 census I have a Harriet and William Davies in Farndon with several Griffiths grandchildren, which seem to be with them on the 1891 census!

 William DAVIES      Head      M      Male      63      Denbigh, Wales      Coachman (Driver)      
 Harriet DAVIES      Wife      M      Female      62      Whittington, Shropshire, England

 Harriet BROWN      Boarder      U      Female      21      Cheshire, England      Schoolmistress     

I also have on the 1871 census

George Griffiths abt 1841 Gwersyllt, Denbighshire, Wales Head Barsham Denbighshire
Sarah Griffiths abt 1846 Oswestry, Shropshire, England Wife Barsham Denbighshire
John Griffiths abt 1867 Minera, Denbighshire, Wales Son Barsham Denbighshire

Hope this helps (fingers crossed its the right family!!)

thanks m for the reply
I am trying to link sarah (daughter )with Samuel (son)on a census
I am positive that these are all the same family BUT to prove it once and for all I need
WILLIAM+HARRIET
SON SAMUEL(born oswestry)+SARAH (DAUGHTER)
+ other siblings! living together

I have Samuel on 1881 census with wife mary at 239 S? T?/   hones buildings brymbo.

Age 22 On 1871 with William+harriet
Brother william
  at minera cottages minera
(NO SARAH)
I have no idea of the age of Sarah!
H___E___L___P
If I can prove they are the same family it would help tie up an enormous amount of loose ends

Thanks Frank
