Hi Zoe Thank you for your kind offer. I have tried unsuccesfully to find one of my ancestors - Mary Jane Durham. I have her on the 81 with her family. In 91 she is not with her family, but, her illegitimate daughter Florence is living with her parents and has been listed as Niece. On the daughter Florence's birth cert in 1883 Mary Jane was a servant. I know that she was alive for the 91, she died in 1893. I have her death cert with her mother Jane Durham listed as informant and still at Little North Street. Her death cert states that she died on the 31st July 1893 in St Marys Hospital and that her occupation was a domestic sevant at 35 Howley Place, Paddington. (which I can not find). Below you will find the details for the 81 and also the 91 for other family members. I thank you for any light that you can shed on this.

Hi Zoe. Could you please try and find a Mary S (or J) Beedle for me on the 1861 census. She was born c1852/3 in London. On the 1871 census she is listed as niece and living in Leicester. I'm hoping to find her with her parents, to try and narrow down whose niece she actually is. Thanks. Margaret

Hi Zoe! Could you look up 1851, 1861, 1871 census for me. I am searching for a Maria Louisa Styles/Stiles chirstened 1851 in Milton by Gravesend, Kent. Think her parents are William and Harriet Styles. In 1881 census she is married to Edward Bourne/Bourn/Baume (can't find her actual marriage though) living in Murston, Kent, In 1891 living in Elmley, Kent in 1901 living in Swanscombe, Kent. She is NOT the one who married in 1871 to Jospeh Keightley and born in East Wickham. Please, please help. Totally stuck with this one! Angela

Sorry Zoe. Eliza was born 1828 in Shoreditch, London also. I only found that she married William Harwood last night, so I have no info at all on him. Would Marylebone, Middlesex be in around the same area as Shoreditch? Could you give me a list of who is in the house with Susan - maybe they are family. Thanks. Margaret
