Sarah DOLMAN
Set As Default Person -
Name Sarah DOLMAN Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Abt 1827 Alrewas, Staffordshire, England
- From the 1851 census where shown as aged 23 and the 1861 census where shown as aged 34.
However, she gave her age as 43 when she married in 1872 and was recorded as 49 in the 1881 census.
She may have been inventing a father's name - shown as William Edgeley when she married in 1849 but Thomas Wilkington when she married in 1872. Or was one her biological father, the other a step-father?
Plus, in the 1851 census an 11 year old visitor was with Sarah and her first husband - Ann Millington. Millington and Withington and look very similar - was this a relation? (maybe a niece?)

Bride is shown as Sarah Dalman, full age, spinster, but her father as William Edgeley, labourer. Sarah made her mark so can't be certain she was not Sarah Dalman EDGELEY; William was not a witness so can't be sure he wasn't William Edgeley DALMAN.
