Multi family households
In 1921, I am finding so many relations crammed into one house: a brother and sister, with their respective families; nephews and neices; a daughter, her husband and family, plus another grandchild. Was this the norm for working families? This is only happening for my town-dwelling relations, but may be a reflection of where my families were in the cycle: my rural families had most of the children still unmarried and at home.
