Hi to everybody that replied to my message. Sorry it has taken so long for me to get back on here.

Portland Rose....... Thank you for telling me that Amy/Harriet is actually Annie Maria, I had seen the birth in Freebmd but was not positive. Am
I pleased I have that sorted! Thank you also for giving me the marriage of Ann Maria.

Jeannie....... Florence R was, as I guessed Rhoda as I rememeber my Mother speaking of a Rhoda.

It is a pain when the family use another name for a child, should be getting used to it by now as I have had several name changes.

I am extremely grateful for all your positive help.

Thank you so much
Rose

I think it's the same family but just with some errors on the census. John/George is consistently a gas stoker.

Harriet/Amy M is actually Annie Maria.

Rose,

on the 1881 census Harriet is with George and Maria, and on the 1891 the Amy M (who you think could be Harriet) is with John and Maria - two different families I think ..................

The handwriting definitely says Amy M Elmore in 1891 and Harriet in 1881.

Please can someone help me. According to 1881 census Harriet Elmore is aged 2. On 1891 census Harriet is not listed, instead Amy appears aged 12.
I have looked on Freebmd but there is not a Harriet or Amy listed.

I am wondering if the handwriting of the enumerator is bad?
Is there someone please that can take a look for me, In 1881 the family were living 8 Florence Road, Plaistow.
1891 they were living 67 Price Wales Road.

Many thanks Rose
