The Basics

Jane never married.
Jane had one listed occupation as a clerk in a milliners works.
Jane died between October - December 1899 in West Derby, Lancashire. She was 54 years old.

Children
None

Interesting
It appears that Jane never left home (so to speak). She always lived with a member of the family - usually her parents. However, she spent some time living with her brother William Henry. I wonder why she never left or became independent. The last census she was recorded on was 1891 and then she lived alone and had an occupation. Why was she so dependent on others?

Charles's occupation was a lock manufacturer.

Interesting
Charles spent the majority of his life in Wolverhampton but spent the last few years of his life in West Derby. What inspired this move when it is clear from the 1871 census that he had a successful lock manufacturing business? All his children were born to Elizabeth, he had none with Ann. There is a 5 year gap between Charles's birth and baptism, why was that? Was Charles in fact born in Wolverhampton? On the 1871 census it states his niece Eliza Morris was at the property, so whose daughter is she?
