Gertrude Walter's singer sewing machine

[nestagj]

Here she is with her family in 1901 [ I think the address reads Maypole Cottage, which is in Cwmbran

William H Walters    38 b Bristol   Grocer
Elizabeth A Walters    38 b Newport Sub-Postmistress
Daisy Walters            12 b Cwmbran
Gertrude Walters      10  "
Wilfred Walters    8    "
Austen Walters      7    "
Kathleen Walters    5    "
Madaline Walters    4    "
Elsie Mary Walters    1    "
Gerald Walters    3 Months "
Emely Woods    24          Domestic servant

From info on the 1911 I suspect there is an older child away somewhere.

Looking for 1891 now can't seem to find them...William Walters and Elizabeth Ann Greenwood married in 1885 in Neath.

Nestagj already posted that:

"Scope and content: Heathfield House Roman Catholic Pupil Teachers' Centre staff register, 1905-1953; "

Latin: Nunquam Otio Torpebat.  After googling think in Latin it means something like
("He never relaxed in idleness")

I may be wrong thou

Hi

if you don't mind me asking where are you based - close enough to go to the archives ?

The electoral registers may be a possibility to trace them forwards.
