Hi Flick
Thanks for the info. I am inclined to agree but need to check any possible otherwise the journey could end on this branch :-(

Many thanks again

You may have to resign yourself to the fact that these two simply missed being recorded in 1871

Hi Maureen

Thanks for looking! I used the free search on FMP and I got a Louisa Horslem living with a Rebecca C Horslem, in Islington, Middlesex, but as I dont subscribe to FMP I cant see the details!
These ladies are proving most awkward!!

Thanks again
Vanessa

Well, bedtime for me down under, but hoping some super sleuth can find either Louisa (c1869) or Rebecca (c 1844-1850) or both on the 1871 census.

Thanks for all the work done so far - its very much appreciated.

I've tried all I can think of to find either Louisa or Rebecca in 1871 - no luck.

Vanessa

You girls are amazing! Thank you so much! If we can find Rebecca in 1871 it would be fantastic to add to the history. Still unsure about which birth record is right!!

Any guidance?

It's looking more & more like John was created for proprietery purposes!
I have looked at Twinstead as pointed out by Flick, and think I have found mom Rebecca as a servant in 1881 - unmarried!

Household:
Mary GUNN Head W Female 76 Wheel Laundress

Anne OGG can you explain the record for Louisa Brady Horsley please?

Sorry, dumb moment, but not sure where that John Horsley is from.
Many thanks

ON 1891 Rebecca gives her birthplace as TWINSTEAD - she also says she's a widow, but I'm sceptical about that..............
