Hi Robert, I have just re checked for you. Details as follows (these are definately right) James Flynn,53 b. Ireland, Cork occ. Stevedore Johanna Flynn, 48, b. Bermondsey Hannah, 25, b. Boro' South K. occ. Watch maker Lucy, 21, B. Boro' Union Street Catherine, 18, b. as Lucy Caroline, 16, B. Boro' High St The address may be 11, Millington Place rather than Wellington Place The discrepancy in ages is strange but they are quite clear on the image. Bit of a mystery. Anyway, glad to be of help. Julie
