I have sent a message previously.  Don't know as I did it correctly since I am a new member. 

Regarding Springfield House and Louisa Humpherson.  Louisa was a sister to my grandmother Julia (Humpherson) Leese.  Grandmother, Julia worked as a young woman at Springfield House, when it was a girls' school and my grandmother was house-mother.  Louisa and Julia were daughters of Thomas & Mary (Hotchkiss) Humpherson.  Other members of the family were: Daniel, married to Sarah Deakin; Emily, married to John Leese; (1st. Alice, died as a child; Amelia married to John Harris:  Mary Elizabeth married to Joseph Hayward;  2nd Alice married to Joseph Dyson;  John T.; Aaron.  Great Aunt Louisa married James Edwards.  Two of their children( a boy and a girl) died at a young age, then there were Alice, Jessie, Walter and Mary. Mary married Wilfred Henshall.  I don't know if my previous message has reached the right party because of me not really knowing how the Site worked, but I look forward to a contact.

Regards,
Doris

Hello,

I am a senior from Nova Scotia, Canada.  I have just joined this site and all is new to me.  Louisa Humpherson is my great aunt and is a sister of my grandmother Julia (Humpherson) Leese.  My grandmother as a young woman worked at "Springfield House" when it was a girls' s school.  My grandmother was house mother.  Great aunt Louisa was married to James Edwards, children were Jessie, Alice, Walter and Mary.  Mary was a very close 1st cousin of my mother's and she was married to Wilfred Henshall.  I can supply more information if you contact me.  0Doris)

Hi Celia

Thanks for your reply. My g.grandmother was Louisa Humpherson (from Shropshire) - I know she would have been employed in some capacity at Springfield House rather than a houseowner. I have been trawling through the 1881 census enumeration districts to try and find the occupants but it's never ending! I'd be grateful for any help you can offer.

Best wishes, Fairlane
