By 1881 she was living with her husband in Lakenham, Norfolk. By 1891 they had moved into a public house, The Cricketer's Arms, 67 Lindley Street, which he ran. They were still there for the <a href="../../Census/census_chettleburgh.htm#1901Cricketers">1901 census</a>.
The 1851 census (below) gives us the combination of birthplace and parents, the age is a year out though (could be due to the census occurring at different times of the year, and it agrees with her marriage certificate):
