Pleased I could be of assistance Porkpiebaby.

The outcome of all this is that Thomas & Jarvis Abbott, William Clarke & his siblings, and Thomas & Georgiana Pepperday were cousins. If Thomas Abbott and William Clarke were staying with the Pepperdays on census night, they would be described as nephews, which was their relationship to the head of the household, Joseph Pepperday and his wife.

By the way, F.W.K stands for Framework Knitter, a common occupation among the Pepperdays who originated from Barrowden in Rutland, but moved to Hathern in Leicestershire (where Gervase was born), and in the early part of the 19th century, due to the agricultural crisis, more of them moved to the Heanor area to find work in the mines.
