1901 census Sumner Street, Southwark
« on: Sunday 04 December 16 16:20 GMT (UK) »
I have recently been given some notes of my late grandmother's (1899-1993) memories of Southwark in the early 1900s and am trying to tie her memories to actual evidence.  I have found an 1896 directory and a couple of other sources which confirm some data, but I would like to check if the 1901 census can fill in gaps.

Please could someone with access to the 1901 census let me know the householder/occupation for the low numbers in Sumner Street?

even numbers:
16 - Rumbles (confirmed)
12 or 14 - Williamson family (John, Eleanor, Charles, Eleanor)
12 - house
10 - Basford cats' meat (confirmed)
8 - Fitzgibbons shoemenders (confirmed)
6 - cigarette shop

odd  numbers
coffee shop
derelict pub
printing works - Amalgamated Press (confirmed)


many thanks
Philip
