Remember though that ages of those over 15 on the 1841 census are rounded down so that Isabella and Drusilla could be 15-19, not necessarily twins.

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

The address is Malt Mill Lane.
Drusilla and Isabella were NOT born in the county.
The previous family has a Letitia Moon, silk winder, also not born in county.

Hi Margee

Thank you for the address, what do you mean by the previous family?
I know that Letitia is Drusilla's sister.

Sorry, Kath, I meant the previous family on the census list i.e. the family who lived next door.
