Hi Everyone,

I am desperately seeking information on my maternal gt. grandfather, Thomas HAMILTON, born abt. 1849 in Middlesex, England.  I have him on the 1881 census RG11/Piece 0114/ Folio 91/Page 35
Dwelling:  4 Carey Place
Westminster St. John the Evangelist, London, Middlesex.

Married, age 32, Birthplace:  Westr., Middlesex, England
Occupation:  General Dealer
*Ellen Hamilton, married, age 31, Birthplace:  Westr. Middlesex, England
Julian Hamilton, daughter, age 10, Birthplace:  Westr. Middlesex, England
Thos. Hamilton, son, age 8, Birthplace:  Westr. Middlesex, England
JANE HAMILTON, daughter, age 3, Birthplace:  Westr. Middlesex, England
Georgina Mellon, boarder, married, age 46, Birthplace:  Nottingham, England, occupation, charwoman

I believe Ellen's maiden surname was SULLIVAN.

Jane, Thomas' three year old daughter, is my grandmother, who was a Home Child and emigrated to Quebec, Canada in 1892 at the age of 15

This has been a really big brick wall for me. Jane's birth certificate just doesn't seem to exist despite all attempts.  Hopefully, finding her parents would help.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
