Ok, I've located Thomas and Hannah on the 1881 Census in East Ham - no Elizabeth living with them there, so the entry I found for her working as a dom serv could well be the right one then.

Kath, Seems not to be any of these.
Maybe the next step for me is to get the birth certs .to make absolutely clear who the parents were.

Many thanks. Margaret

Athena, I think I will try the 1881 census where Elizabeth is a domestic servant. Do you have the name of her employer.

Sorry for delay - had some work to do.

I checked the census page for you and it looks like the employer was a Margaret Mackingtosh, age 59, single, head - address is 38 Cadogan Pl, Chelsea. She had 4 domestic servants living with her!

Alright for some, eh?

Regards, Athena

Oh yes, not sure if you already have the 1871 info for Thomas and Hannah - but the only couple I found that seem to fit were living with Samuel and Mally Robinson in Lancs. Thomas is listed as "son" and Hannah as "dau in law". But no children with them. Not sure if this is your couple or not - any idea?
