Hi Supernan

Your Nicholls family seem to disappear! I found them on the 1881 in Roade, but of the children you mention, William and Emma are not there - just Edward, Sarah and Amy, plus four boarders.
In 1891 the only person I could find who might possibly be connected is:
1891 RG12/3076/82/6
55 Nicholson St, Warrington, LancashireWilliam Bennett, head, 24, railway ticket collector, b. Whichford, Warwickshire
Ellen Bennett, wife, 29, b. St Helens, Lancs
Fredk Walter Bennett, son, 2moths, b. Warrington, Lancs
William Nichols, boarder, unmar, 26, railway goods guard, b. Castlethorpe, Bucks
... but then couldn't find him (or anyone else) on the 1901!
Cheers
