I know where Matilda was in other census apart from 1871.
In the 1861 census Matilda was 6,Henry 5,Elizabeth 4,Annie 5mths,Julie 5 mths.Like to know where the other children were in other census.

I think I've found her on 1871:

RG10 730
St Giles, Camberwell, Surrey.
I can't read the house name, I think it's Camden something.

Matilda Georgiana Wilson - transcribed as AMOTH, 16, born Barking, Essex.

I think it says her occupation is General Domestic Servant

AMOTH - if you look at the census page, the writing is very hard to read and quite faint. I can see that the name should be Wilson (just!) but that's because I was looking for Wilson. The person who transcribed the data mis-read the entry as Amoth, not Wilson.

I didn't get a chance to look for the other kids yet - I'm at work  I'm being naughty!! lol
