Mmmmm....I see. Harriett was tobacconists assistant when she lived with William Cooper Webb, but after he emigrated around 1850, she is shown as
milliner. She could have been a milliner as early as 1849 when George died
I suppose, but I believe he was shown as living in Goswell Street at time of death.
Wish the name on cert was something other than William!
