Hi Jim
Thankyou I thimk that solves that question


Julie
She was in Wandsworth with Esther Welfare as head of family

It is all rather confusing as am wondering if Esther was Caroline's Mum ie jessie's grandmother.In1881 census Jessie was spelt Jesse

Elizabeth

Julie

Julie Report 17 Nov 2007 12:37

Ok Found it

Caroline is her mum, and Esther is her G/Mother...the image is very faint
