What is known about Sarah ?
Cannot find a Death entry that might be a candidate ; IGI has -Born About 1855 , , England Death: 29 APR 1925
Cannot find a Birth that fits to father Joseph.
I would expect some "trace" in 1861 / 1871 census indices but nothing "leaps" out !
IGI has a possible further marriage but in New Zealand (?)

Thanks Slowhands
Even with the Marfell connection, where I have a lot of detail you usually manage to add to my knowledge, in this instance you have given me 3 census entries I didn't have before, plus the deaths of Pybus & Leah.
I would guess that Leah Marfell was in service in West Ham and as Pybus was an engine driver she met him in London. A lot of relationships were made this way, Leah's sister Elizabeth Marfell born Ruardean, married a Joseph Cade Mannell, a Cornish Carpenter, Builder & Decorator. They married in Campden Hill. Also whilst both Elizabeth & Joseph died in Ladbroke Grove & Kensington London, they are both buried in Ruardean.
My own Grandfather contracted scillicosis as a Forest of Dean Coal Miner, the whole family moved to Croydon, where my Aunt was in service and she said "it was a nice place". My mother met my father, a Regular Soldier in the Kings Troop Royal Horse Artillery, based at Woolwich and as a result I was born in Croydon 9 months after my father got back from the war.
None of this however has helped the original poster searching for Giles Nicholson.
