Kim

have you looked at the image for the 1891 Census?

That will tell you whether it was a house occupied by your relatives only or whether they had lodgers, or whether the house was shared.

Researching:
My brother, photo taken in September 1991 just a couple of weeks before he died. ............................................................ To help us and to get better results, please post as much detail as you can, especially name, date(s) and place. Also say what you already know.

Thank you Dazed

I thought my family solely occupied this house but seemingly not.
