Hi,
I've found the 1891 census for my 2x great grandmother, but her relationship to her father (Head of the family), as recorded on the census, is 'Servant' instead of daughter! Her occupation is then given as a domestic servant.
This has shocked me to think she may have been referred to as a servant by her own father, rather than his daughter. Her step-mum is also on the census, and her full blood sister is recorded as a daughter, as is her half-siblings.
So I was wondering if this has happened to any other families-that children were their parents' servants, rather than children (according to census records)? What kind of duties would a servant do for when working as a servant for their own parents?
Cheers
