Hello Folks,
I have a problem with some information given to me by a fellow researcher some years ago that I cannot corroborate.
My family in 1871 and 1881 is o.k.
1871 census
6 Mills Court
Shoreditch
Robert Orsler aged 29 cabinet maker born Bromeswell, Suffolk
Louisa Orsler brush drawer aged 22 born Shoreditch
Re married 1879
Marriages Sep 1879
AYLESBURY Harriet Ann Bethnal Green 1c 400
Orsler Robert Bethnal Green 1c 400
1881 census
17 Calvert Street,
Shoreditch,
Robert (surname spelled Hawsler) aged 36 cabinet maker. b. Ipswich, Suffolk
Harriet wife ( aged 36, born Westminster)
Robert (7)
Harry (5)
Both sons are scholars from Robert Orsler's previous marriage to Louisa and both born in Shoreditch. Robert is listed erroneously as born in Ipswich and the ages in this entry could be suspect.
However it is the entry that I was given for 1891 I cannot find:
Robert Horsley (sic) lives at 18 Coronet Street, Hoxton Old Town with his wife Harriet (40, born Shoreditch), presumably his second wife, and children Robert (17), a labourer, and Henry (14), a scholar.
I have found an address at 18 Coronet St in Hoxton St Peters (RG12/248) and this family is not there.
I can't imagine that my fellow researcher has imagined this entry that he has given me but I cannt find the family at all in 1891. There are many different spellings of the name and I have tried them all.
Any help welcome
Thank you
Brenda (Orsler)
