George Cempline O'Brien - married 1851 Southwark - any trace before or after?

[Emsworthy]

In 1861, an Emma Sullivan jr and James Sullivan (there is a birth on the GRO for a Jane Sullivan to a Knapp MMN) are living here:  RG9/382 F 8 P 24.  They appear to be with a Slaughter? family, but I've yet to find a connection.

I like a good mystery, but my head hurts!

Emma Knapp/Napp’s paternal details from the marriages:

1849: William Knapp, greengrocer
1863: William Napp, horse dealer

Both Peckham or Camberwell-born stepchildren? May be unconnected.

Possible for Emma snr in 1861 (as Butcher, already with future husband George Butcher, a hawker as per the 1863 marriage):

RG9/329/184/41

Not sure where son James Butcher, 10 b Southwark, fits in or what has happened to Emma jnr and Jane.

Sorry if you have this , or it's already been covered :

George Camplin O'Brien born abt 1815 O-D 1873 Greenwich 1d 595

There is a George O'Brien , b 1815 , Greenwich Pensioner , on the 1871 census as a lodger at 12 Chester Street , Greenwich, birthplace London. It would be interesting to know if this is George Camplin O'Brien who died in 1873 in Greenwich.

That's great Christine, thank you! It could be him.  Hopefully we can prove it...
