Hi,
Well that's something else to go on.
Working on the assumtion that they were still in the London area around the turn of the century, I've looked through the London, Middlesex and Surrey censuses for 1891 and 1901 working on name (ie Amy) and age plus/minus 5 years.
Absolutely nothing.
Then I went back and looked at the 1881C just to check where the children were born (All chelsea, of course) and starting flicking through the London 1891C looking for Minnies. Right next to one, I found Henry John, with Elizabeth and Henry F Genesis at 34 Kessel St, Chelsea (St Lukes) RG12/60/37 could be folio no. 34 or 84 but... none of the other children are there. The Miinie was another surname.
Given that the other children would have been aged between 11 and 23, with Amy elsewhere, I would imagine that they wouldn't have been too far away (Just a guess) but.... I can't find anything.
I can only conclude that they are there, just mistranscribed. As there are something like 140 odd families indexed from the 1881C under the surname 'Ditto', I guess they could be anywhere.
However, as the parents are still in Chelsea, they must be nearby, given their ages.
I'll look again tomorrow concentrating on St Lukes.
I hope that helps
Cheers

Well. I've had another look and draw another complete blank. Sorry. I hope that somebody else will pick this up for you.
Having drawn a blank on Amy and sons Henry James and Geortge Frederick, I had a look this morning for any trace of Alfred R, Frederick J and Minnie (Amys siblings). Just using the christian name and age (ie Minnie aged 10 +/- 5 yrs, throws up 116 pages). Having been through those, it's still a blank.
There aren't even any listings for 'Genesis', even though Henry J and Eliza Jane are at Keppel St, Chelsea.
So, my twopenniesworth is that they have been totally mistranscribed. It could be for example that Alfred, Frederick and Minnie are with a neighbour or grandoarents and have been included in that family's listing under their surname.
I do hope that somebody else picks this up for you.
Oh, by the way, my access to the censuses is through the genealogist.
Good luck
