the bakers of Kensington

[daisy49]

Good morning! can anyone help me please, I'm looking for anyinformation on the Baker Family, Father Joseph Baker,born 1848 in Reading, married to Eliza. they were in Reading up to 1871 census,they moved to 51 Swinbrook Road London and are there in the 1881 census, with their children. I am interested especially in Willy born 1872 Reading, Milate born 1874, Joseph born 1876, the last two in Edenham mews Westbourne Park. any info would be gratefully received, thanks

Joseph Baker 43 born Reading Berks Decorater
Eliza 39 Reading Berks
Joseph 15 Kensington, which covers Westbourne Pk (1881)
Alfred 11 Kensington
James 8 Kensington
Florence 3 Reading Berks
Frederick W 2 Reading Berks
The parents ages are adrift  I think, that is of course if this is the right family, 2 children missing Emily and Milate
