Seems possible that the couple are James BOOM (s of Edward BOOM) and Mary (née DAWSON, d of Henry DAWSON), married 10 Apr 1868 at Holy Trinity, Hoxton.

Well done that is the family. I looked under Boom, Boon(e) Booth, but didn't think of Broom.

But Horace? I suppose he is Henry.

On the 1901 census there were only five children alive, three others died young.

In 1911 there were three alive , and of those three only two outlived Mary who died in 1929. One, Ellen, was my grandmother.

The 1891 was the only census I couldn't find them on. Thank you all.
