It is possible Mile End and Whitechappel are both East London and the ages are estimated. One of my Ancestors swapped her place of birth on each census sometimes Hackney sometimes Shoreditch. Sheila

Kerry - Do you have the actual MC as this would tell you her fathers name and then you would know if the 1881 find is her.....

kerry no need to be sorry :) Would be money well spent as without it how would you know you have found the family ? You need something as a checking point or any info found on a census is just guess work. Esta
