Kemble family research.
Does anyone have any idea where I may find a whole family of children missing on the 1901 census. I have them on the 1891 and 1911.
They were from Hoxton area in London and their parents died in 1900 and 1905. I wondered if they were put into care. I have tried many vaiations of the Surname with no luck.
many thanks
Elaine

Edith Kemble born 1891 in shoreditch
Alfred Kemble born 1889 " "
Lilian Kemble born 1883

If they were in the workhouse or an orphanage, they may possibly be listed just by their initials.

Do you want to post some details and maybe somebody can find them.

Have you found the parent who died in 1905 on the 1901 census?

Just a thought, I have seen some people in institutions listed by surname then christian name and they have also been transcribed the wrong way round. Long shot I know but might be worth a try.
