Brilliant slowhands, thank you so much!

I thought I had exhausted all the different spellings possible in 1851, I've been trying for ages! But I hadn't reckoned on Ellen Helps from Woolaston being called Ann from Olveston with two 'l's two 'p's !! You are clever x

Thank you for also letting me know you think I'm on the right track, I can carry on with parents now. Thanks again.

Sometimes all it takes is a fresh pair of eyes - bless the Enumerator who probably didin't know that Woolaston was just across the River from Olveston / Alveston.....
