Claire, Why don't you ask George when he died? He might leave a clue somewhere to help you with your quest, as he seems quite amiable ;-) Carole P.S. Keep us all updated, would love to hear more!

Yeah, I love doing it too. The older stuff has been easier than finding out living people! My Uncle can't remeber his own ex-wife's maiden name!

Claire Have you thought about going to the library and having a look at the old electoral rolls? It may give you an idea of how long the family lived at the house and give you an insight into what happened to them beyond 1901. You may also finally find out who the husband was IF there was a husband! Notice there's still no husband with Emily in 1891. Given that the lodgers in 1901 were Seaman, I wonder whether the husband was and was away a lot Lou
