Only two Amelia Bullins in 1871 census index, neither look like yours. nell |

I can find no Amelia Bull* in St pancras. Please can you just tell us how her name appears in the census and her birthyear? RG10 just means 1871 and 211 is only a piece number - it will cover a huge area. We need the folio and page numbers too. nell |

Condition of marriage is 'unmarried'. Don't wish to be unkind but I can only think of one profession where you wouldn't need another word after it.....prostitute. Kath. x |

Laraine, Enumerators could be very unkind. If she WAS a prostitute (and I'm not saying she was) the enumerator was being fairly kind to her, as I've seen some use much worse words to describe a prostitute, so professional doesn't sound too bad. Kath. x |
