	This is what has got me stuck. If the father is Arthur this means he was 15/16 at the time.
	Researching: Thums, Halford, Hayes, Spurr & Roberts.

	The census are translated by people whom dont get paid now in this case the census reads John Kirby ...head Annie Thums .....sister Arthur ditto.........son Lily ditto.......daughter Now is the ditto against Kirby or Thums!!???? That is the question!

	Looks like John and Annie ARE brother and sister as it would appear from the marriage that Kirby was her maiden name. Chris

	Whilst researching Annie Thums in my family tree, I have come across this. KIRBY, John Head Single M 30 1861 Watch Maker St Meads, Hampshire THUMS, Annie Sister Married F 28 1863 Hampshire VIEW THUMS, Arthur Son Single M 5 1886 Beeston, Nottinghamshire THUMS, Lily Daughter F 3 1888 Ilkeston, Derbyshire How can they be brother and sister with separate surnames? She had no sisters so I don't know how they can be brother and sister-in-law. However, her mother did marry a Peter Kirkby.
