Just putting this here so we don't have to keep looking it up! Sue's post:
Have you followed the Mabel SAYLES b 1890 to Benjamin and Mary (nee MYERS) SAYLES?
She can be seen in 1901 living with her mother, Mary Elizabeth who has remarried and whose surname is now STANARD/STONARD and sisters. They live in Russell Road Wimbledon.
In 1911 she is still single with this family
One sister I think is named Ethel, though on other census she is Eliza.
On the 1911 document . Mabel I think has written her own name and it resembles the signature of the bride in a marriage to George WELLS in 1920 which took place in Clapham Surrey.

The Mary Elizabeth MYERS from Sue's post I think was the daughter of William MYERS a joiner.
On 19 Apr 1886 in Sheffield she married Benjamin SAYLES, son of Charles SAYLES a vetinary surgeon.
On 10 Feb 1901 as a widow she married Henry STONARD in Wimbledon, Surrey/London.
On the 1901 census with Henry in Wimbledon she is age 36 born Wombwell, Yorkshire and has Eliza E SAYLES age 12 born Derby, Derbyshire, Mabel SAYLES age 11 born Derby, Derbyshire, and Minnie Annie Elizabeth SAYLES age 7 born Wimbledon, Surrey.
This maybe the Mabel (age 11 in 1901) who is a chance to be the mother of Joseph Thomas BROOKS, and yes we are guessing because there are no records we can find to prove anything concrete that we can find presently!
