Mary, Martha and Emily were visiting William Wood aged 46 - Widower, Brazier and Manager of Gas Works and his daughter Mary . "Sister" was written in above the word Visitor. William Wood was from Halifax, Yorkshire. Mary from Crediton. Thebirth certificate for Emily, b.1850 who was with Mary at this census clearly indicated her maiden name was Blatchford, and the presence of Martha in this census, the name and occupation of Emily's father on the birth certificate, and the description of Mary as a Stone Mason's Wife in this census all pointed to this being the family of Thomas Berry. Where was is Thomas? How was Mary related to a Brazier from Halifax? The 1861 census throws some light on some of these puzzles.
