What is the last date you have for Emily? I see she's in the 1881 census with Edith and Minnie

Are you sure Emily was the mother of these children? I've found Minnie Annie and Edith with their father in 1891 - 15 Medway Road, Gillingham

RG12/659/73/29

Stephen E Laurence 36  Head, Wid, New Brompton - Labourer
Edith Laurence 16  Daug  New Brompton

Stephen Edward Lawrence - EITHER Rosetta Evenden OR Emma Mattocks
Yea1Q 1875  Medway (1837-1941)  Kent  2a  623 

COULD BE EMMA

Emma Lawrence
Est Birth abt 1851

Stephen has remarried by 1901 - RG13/734/53/23 - 15 Medway Road - no sign of his daughters here.

Stephen E Lawrence 47  Head  New Brompton, Kent
Jane Lawrence 40  Wife  Bognor, Sussex
Arthur G Lawrence 8  Son  New Brompton, Kent
Edmund J Lawrence 5  Son  New Brompton, Kent
Charles Lawrence 3  Son  New Brompton, Kent
Herbert Wade 16  Stepson  Old Brompton, Kent
Robert Wade 19  Stepson  Bognor, Sussex

Oddly the only marriage I can find for Stephen E Lawrence to Jane Wade is in 1925! Did he wait all that time to marry her?

Stephen E Lawrence
3Q 1925  District: Medway (1837-1941)  Kent 2a  2108   
Spouse's Surname: Jane Wade

Baptism of a Stephen LAWRENCE at Rainham Jun 23 1805. Not sure if this is yours.

http://www.rootschat.com/links/06j1/ Bottom right

Might be Stephen's marriage at Chatham in 1835 to Jane REED

Pure conjecture on ancestry's part - the actual census shows everyone as Stephen sr's children in 1881!
