     The 1911 census shows Florence Fernyhough, Head, 55, Widow, with (a   
    >> son aged 26 and) Florence Fernyhough, Daughter, 9 (so born 1902 or '1).   
   That is an error and should be Emma Fernyhough, Head 55......   
      
    From the GRO, Florence Ferneyhough  is the daughter of Emma   
   FERNEYHOUGH, FLORENCE    	FOXLEY   
   GRO Reference: 1901  S Quarter in STONE  Volume 06B  Page 31   
      
   in 1901 census Emma was a grocer shopkeeper, so plenty of friendly    
   customers?
