there is a tree on ancestry they are still useing the name linstedt

Emily in 1861:
Hunsdon St., Hunsdon, Hertfordshire
George Graves, head, 44, sawyer
Eliza, wife, 47
William, son, 21, sawyer
Mary, dau, 14, servant
Louisa, dau, 12, scholar
*Emily, dau, 9, scholar
Frederick, son, 7, scholar
Allen, son, 4
All born Hunsdon except head George born Stocking Pelham, Herts.

Can't find Eugene in 1871 but Emily Graves is a servant, a kitchen maid, in Alfold, Surrey. She was 19, born 1852, Hunsdon, Hertfordshire.

Free BMD:
Eugene Lindstedt married Emily Graves Sep. quarter 1880, Hackney. (1b 824)

Well done Margaret, looks likely then. Def. worth following up.

Emily, wife, 39, born Herts, Hunsdon
Francis, son, 12
Elizabeth, dau, 10
Thomas, son, 8
Children born Bermondsey.

well done indeed, is it possible to find them on the 1901?

Teresa

Well done Margaret!

Could this be them? Name is transcribed Lenshudt and birthplace Boalyne, France! Original looks like Lenshadt.
1891 census
1 Active Pl?, Bermondsey, London
Eugene (Whatever), head, 41, stevedore dock, born Boulogne, France (British Subject)
Emily, wife, 39, born Hunsdon, Herts?
Emily, dau, 9
Elizabeth, dau, 5 months
Francis, son, 2
Children born Bermondsey.

Possible children, looks like they lost a couple of little boys.

Looks like his marriage to Emily, perhaps Emily was English. Would be good to get the marriage certificate if this is the right family.

Graves Emily Hackney 1b 824

maybe somebody could be so kind as to do a lookup on the 1891 and 1901 Census for you I must admit it was the Eugene bit that caught my attention. They are on the 1901 but I can't bring up the full details.

Thomas Lindstedt Eugene,Emily abt 1893 Bermondsey , London, England relation Bermondsey , London
