London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Kellys Directroy Lookup Request for Poplar, London 1950s/1960s if poss?
« on: Friday 05 May 23 18:50 BST (UK)  »
Looking for a Company called Cundell Eve who I think based in Dace Road  on Fish Island. May even be Smeed Road perhaps.  I do know they moved to Witham circa 1970 and were known as Cundell Cartons or Packaging thereafter.

Dave Road is on the border of Hackney Wick between Hackney and Poplar

Was Kellys even available in the 1960s?

London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Caroline Sayers Census Lookup Please if possible
« on: Monday 17 August 20 13:25 BST (UK)  »
In 1990 my late father bought a house in Trumpington Rd, Forest Gate, London E7 and found a New Zealand passport for a 44 year old woman born in Stepney in August 1875, called Caroline Sayers.  Looking on Free BMD there is a CS's by that name,  but a Caroline Elizabeth Sayers, born that year in Stepney. My sister has only just given me the PP and it has left me wanting to know more.

CS's applied for the NZ passport in August 1919 and left to come to the UK via the USA in September 1919 and so I presume it was by boat?

I have found a  Caroline Elizabeth Sayers death in 1963 aged 82 but this makes her born in 1881 not 1875. SW Essex is mentioned and this covered Cannhall I believe, up until 1965, and is a stone's throw from my Dads house.

Also inside the PP is a loan contract set up by Caroline Sayers in 1927 for £50 with two years to pay it back.

The passport only has one stamp inside and that for the USA part of her journey home.

Could anyone lookup some census returns if possible for me please to find out more? If so I would be very, very grateful.

William Eason born Shorditch 1891/92 to David William Eason b Milton Cambs. 1862 and Mary Ann Eason nee Bradford born Cambs 1863

A few months back someone on here found Williams siblings in the Shorditch workhouse as Arthur, David, Nellie and Elizabeth but no William. He is on the 1911 census living with the above. 

I have looked at the 1901 census but cannot find William.
