Thanks both. So i am making an assumption that the Elizabeth Valentine I have in my tree is not the same Elizabeth as in this census? My original Elizabeth was a Valantine from birth, but this Elizabeth was a Valentine through marriage. Then her husband died?

Might this be Elizabeth Valantine nee Jones in 1881:

Thanks - more info for me to check. I thought I was getting the hang of this.

What confused me was an Elizabeth Valantine who was born same year as Elizabeth Jones. I take it there are 2 Elizabeth's; 1 born Valentine and 1 who married a Valantine

Also, where has Elizabeth Jones come from? She just appears on the census as Valentine. Sorry for sounding dumb!

She's the daughter of Thomas and Ann Jones who are listed before her on the 1891 census page (I think the head (Thomas Jones) was on the prev page?). See if she is with her parents in 1861 and 1871.

Phoenix, that was the marriage I wondered about, but then discovered I've had a big fraud on my bank account , so forgot all about this thread!!

1871:

1861:

I have to admit in both cases I stopped looking the minute I found a family with the right children, but for completeness Is suppose you should look at all the familie of couples called Thomas and Ann Jones of the rght age and place, just in case there's more than one possibility!
