Hi Cathay,
No probs, I'm enjoying myself 
Never thought of glass bead maker making glass eyes, though it does make sense, I think it would take some craftmenship to match colours etc.
Well not having much luck with old Arthur, in fact he is nearly as bad as some of mine .
What I did find on the Mormon web site on the IGI, was some birth details, not sure if it is your lot, there is definitely something odd about Arthur's parents and can't figure it out yet.
Here goes:
Arthur Robey: b: 04/07/1858, christened 13/12/1865 at St Dunstan, Stepney, London Father: Matthew Robey, Mother Elizabeth. I wonder why such a long time before christening???
I've not been able to find a marriage entry or any more children to this couple....but I did find these details following your lead on Matthew Lough.
Matthew Bell Lough marr' Elizabeth Harriet Elliot on the 18/12/1843 at St Dunstan, Stepney.
Children: Ann Bell Lough b: 24/01/1830...and...Betsey Thomas Lough 24/01/1830 St Mary's Lambeth, twins again...
Leonora Laura Lough, b: 12/11/1838 ch: 28/12/1838 St Matthew, Bethnal Green.
Isabel Lough b: 24/07/1847, ch: 22/08/1847 St Dunstan Stepney.
So you see they are an elusive lot and lots of research to find what really matches. I'll have another look tomorrow, in the meantime do please ask if you want me to look anything up for you, I think I would be going mad if I didn't have ancestry, I use it nearly every day to do double checks.
Speak soon Jane.

Good Morning Cathay,
I think I've cracked it, I've found a link between Matthew Lough and Arthur Roby, see what you think?
1851 Census, 40 Durham St, Bethnal Green, Tower Hamlets
Matthew B Lough Head, Married, age: 33, occ Clerk in Newspaper Office, b: Gillingham Kent. Elizabeth H Lough Wife, age: 28, b: Barns Sussex Isabel Dau, age: 3 b: Stepney Elizabeth Dau age: 1 b: Bethnal Green Cowen Shotter Cousin age 18, occ Clerk, b: Sittingbourn Kent
1851 Census Tower Hamlets
Elizabeth Robey Head , Married, age: 34 (?) occ: Milliner, b: Yarmouth Norfolk Elizabeth Robey Dau, age:1, b: Limehouse Middlesex Sarah Robey Sister-in-Law age: 43.
with me so far 
1861 Census, Fairfield Rd, Bow, Tower Hamlets, Ref: RG 9/303.
Matthew Lough Head, Widow, age: 43, occ: Commercial Clerk, b: Greenhith Kent. Ellen Lough Dau, age:16 b:Stepney Isabel Lough Dau, age:13 b: Stepney Elizabeth Lough Dau, age:11 b: Bethnal Green Fredrick Lough Son, age:6 b: Hornsey Un-Named Natural Son, age:2 b: Bow Elizabeth E Robey Visitor, age:11, b: Poplar.
Stick with it.... 
1871 Census Tower Hamlets Ref: RG 10/562
Elizabeth Robey Head, Unmarried, age:37, occ Berlin Wool Worker, b: Yarmouth Norfolk Elizabeth Robey Dau, Unmarried, age 20, occ Berlin Wool Worker, b: Mile End Middlesex. Arthur Robey Son, age:12 b: Bow
I was able to find Matthews children in 1871, but no sign of Matthew.
Now my best guess!!!! is that Matthew and Elizabeth Robey had a little fling, and produced our Arthur? And that in 1861 Arthur and his sister Elizabeth were visiting Matthew and his family, probably OK since his wife is dead  Well thats my theory, though I have been known to jump the gun.... 
Jane.

Hi Cathy,

John Willey age 44, Painter, B. Highlaver Essex Jane wife age 41, Domestic, B. Epping Essex John Lowen son age 15, Telegraph messenger, B. Lambeth Surrey Charles A son age 4, B. Highlaver Essex
Free Bmd has a marriage of John Willey to Jane Lowen - Sy Georges Hanover Sq June Q. 1874.
Regards,
Jim

Hi Cathay,
Well my couple of hours turned into 12hours, not enough weetabix Cathay a weekend in hospital, I do not recommend kidney stone's people . pain you would not believe, but would recommend the morphine, looooooovly stuff.
I found the census reports you found jaytoot, and was taken into hospital before I could post them...honest so our research seems to agree.
I found one more I'm not sure of though, 1901 John Willey aged 65, married, General Laborer??. He was in the union Workhouse in Hanover Square. Now I'm not positive about this one as his wife was not in the Workhouse, I looked at every individual, and I could not find her anywhere else, so some more research is needed on that one.
It looked to me Cathay as though young Charles was an only child, unless......his father was married before? . He did marry late.
I also found a birth on the IGI for a John Willey father Charles, and I can't find it anywhere on my desk, I'll keep looking and get back to you.
Aha, found the 41 census I wasn't sure of, just to mix the pot a bit.
1841 High Lever Essex Ref: HO 107/336/7
Charles Wiley age 30, occ Wheelwright Sarah Wiley age 30, Eliza Wiley age 10 Elizabeth Wiley age 5 John Wiley age 3 William Wiley age 1
Need to follow Charles up to make sure.
1891 St George Hanover Square, Belgrave, 50 "Monument" Street (I think)
John Willey Head, Age 54, occ House Painter, b: Essex "High Lane" Jane Willey Wife, age 51, b: Epping Charles A Willey Son, age 14, occ Office Boy Port. b: Essex "High Lane" Plus 3 others one a Nephew aged 19, the other 2 were females aged 23 and 44yrs and said to be visitors, I need to study these names a little longer Cathay as the handwriting is really bad, I'll let you know as soon as I've got it.
Jane
