Hello Jenny Here is the entry from the 1841 census - the line / shows the end of the main household family - so John & Martha and sons were either living in part of the house or living as lodgers I would guess . It's difficult in 1841 as you don't get any relationship information ( and no birthplace other than Y for born in county) 1841 census Haverfordwest parish of St Martins Folio 15 page 23 City Road Mary Thomas 35 Y Margaretta Thomas 13 Y John Thomas 10 Y / John Taylor 25 M.S. Y Martha Taylor 25 Y James Taylor 2 Y John Taylor 1 Y The only otherTaylor in the Haverfordwest area is a Mary Taylor - so possibly John's mother she is living in someone e;se's household as shown below:- Haverfordwest St Martin Folio 7 page 7 No 11 Barn Street.
