Do you know whether Ellen Adrienne Logsdon married Robert Starling or John Wright and have you found them in 1891?

I think she married John Wright, but only because of the 1891 census.

Sorry not to have replied to all these, I've been out out all day.

Back on track tomorrow!

Is this James? Seems a little too old....... I guess you can't find either of them in 1881? Have you found an alternative person who may belong to this death reg?
This is James her "husband" You are quite right, not been able to find any in 1881

There's a bap at Christ Church Spitalfields 27th Oct 1878 for Minie Logsdon dau of James (polisher) and Minie. Who on earth is this? The address given (50 Hanbury St) happens to be empty in 1881!

There is a birth registration for Minnie Logsden Jan-Mar 1877 Bethnal Green, likely to be the same person as in that baptism.

I can't work out who she is!! I'm sure it must be one of theirs! Wilhelmina's daughter Wilhelmina c 1857 was known as Minnie through most of her life, but lived, so seems unlikely to have had another child with the same name.

Hanbury St is closely linked with daughter Wilhelmina's husband's family, they lived and died there and got married from there (from the house that one of Jack the ripper's victims was found!- a few years before that event though) so it is quite possible that they lived there.

For years I have thought this ladies surname was Corralie, it is only 3 weeks ago that I realised that I was wrong. The simplest thing in the world would be to order daughter Wilhelmina's, why didn't I think of this earlier. Will order in the morning.

No sign of a marriage or death for that Minnie. Maybe after James died his widow returned to France with Minnie (if she is their child).

That could explain why there is no more that I can find for Wilhelmina Coralie, no death and on no more censuses.
