Don't be confused by the 41 census making it look as if there are twins when actually ages of those over 15 are rounded down to the nearest 5. Somebody showing as age 15 could be anything from 15-19 and age 20 could be anything from 20-24.
(Ages are rounded down not up as Mel says.)

They were not twins on the 1851. One was 12 and one was 10!!!!!!

But I will look up Joseph and sarah as the 1841 rounded ages up so they may not be twins.

I would suspect you've just skipped a generation and John George Peters and Sarah Collins are the parents of John Peters who married Sarah Catharine Triggs.

Yes !! the other lady researching the tree has the birth certificate of the child born after the ones listed she gave me the Sarah collins BUT I,m beginning to think!!!!!!!
The child she has COULD be the parent and as the names are the same Sarah colins is the grand parent to John peters age 10 and NOT the mother!! on this census

But looking at what you all have written you made me think this so again I owe you all a big THANKS
I will send for the only certificate and go from there

RutlandBelle Report 10 Oct 2010 16:29

you need a birth cert of one of the children which would give mother's maiden name

Well like has been pointed out the two are seprate families BUt we cant find any other marriage for this couple ...
I,m sorry but this is all new to be as before 1837ish you cant get certificates so how do you know you have the right couple ?
