Not going out...again

 Another very chilly day, temperature only just getting to three degrees, so plan today was the same as yesterday…not going out. Well only a quick walk to Sainsbury supermarket, yesterday it was to Iceland. Iceland have predominantly frozen foods and some of their pre-prepared meals are pretty good.
 
Was nice to have a bit of a sleep in too cos last night we were Skyping with the kids back home and went to bed very late.
I spent some of the day…well quite a lot of it actually on the family tree. Did I get anywhere? I’m not really sure if I did or not. Why, well here is the story.

The Man and I are planning a trip ay Easter to Suffolk to go to a little country village called Wilby. So, I really to have to get a move on to review and consolidate what I know about the ancestors from there.
I checked an 1841 census and saw something that I hadn’t noticed before. And what was that?

Well below the last entry for the family I’m researching  is another entry, that of a two year old with a totally different last name.

I sent an enquiry to a very helpful site, Genes Reunited, and with members help now might have a sibling for my three times paternal great grandfather. Only might, so there is still a lot more homework to be done
