I am a little stuck, my g grandad, Thomas D Bennett, was married to a lady called Sarah,I found this in the 1871 census, but she died in 1875, I can't find her maiden name?
Thomas then went on to marry my g grandmother, her name was Emma , they went on to have children, but in the 1901census there is a grandaughter living with them ,her name was Annie Evans, she was born in1887, I know nothing about this little girl, but would love to know more, can any body help.
Many thanks Michelle
