Following are included in Henry Skeggs Family with comparison across census etc

1861 Henry Skeggs in Wales then they go to Canada

Certain daughters were in Channel islands Jersey census for Drake, Paige,  Skeggs, Ball etc

1871 in Gibraltar 

1881 Elizabeth Sarah Skeggs by herself as Elizabeth S. SKIGGS Serv 18 Canada, North America General Servant

And her folks 1881 Henry Skeggs and family
Henry SKEGGS 46 ..., Devon, England Labourer and Elizabeth SKEGGS Wife 44 ..., Devon, England Edward SKEGGS 12 Gibraltar 
also born in Canada where William in 1860 - cannot find him in 1881 but 1891 he is in Gosport - also Cecilia who I think died as a child
In 1891 and 1901 census Henry shows as born in Tewin Herts
We think Tewin misread in 1881 as Devon by enumerator as so close to wife's place of birth.
and from IGI we have found in Tewin
