This seems to be the family of MARY VICTORIA KEMP in the 1881 English census.

She is not showing of course because as JANET has listed, she was not born until 1884

Wilkinson KEMP   Head   Married   Aged  25 Born    Haslingden, Lancashire, England Occ   Silk Mercer
   
Mary KEMP   Wife   Married   Aged   26  Born   Prestbury, Cheshire, England
       
James KEMP   Son  Aged  1 m Born    Manchester, Lancashire, England       
 

There ae others at the address, but they appear unrelated to  WILKINSON KEMP.

The address was 148 Stretford Rd
The census was taken at Hulme, Lancashire, England

My apologies again.
I have gone back and re read the thread.

That very much sounds like the family.
I had just assumed my great grandparents mary and fred were born in Australia.

My mother is from lancashire England, gee i hope her family and Fred or mary's families are not related..lol...but i hope not.

Ty so much for your time and effort  greatly appreciated.

 :) :) :)

The only information I have on my nans family is what you have provided.
I am compiling it at the moment.
I am now going to research Thomas Watts family from lancashire England and see how far I am able to go back.

Any further information you could provide is always greatly appreciated sparrett.
