But maybe he did find his man..... if we believe the Michael Caine film, anyway!! ;D

Or maybe Jack and Julia ran away together....

I have just received the four certificats I ordered.  :) Here they are, but in four separate posts as I'm not sure if they will go through all in one go ???

I have only had time for a quick look so far, but Lottie's death certificate is quite interesting.  The fact that she was working as a hawker fits with the 1911 census and it is easy to see how Ventreney became Montreney, so I am pretty sure it is our Julia/Lottie...

I have had a look for daughter Charlotte at 15 Gun Street in 1881.  She is working there at the time of her death in 1885, so I thought it was worth looking.  However I can only find one household in Gun Street on FindMyPast, and as far as I can make out there is only one occupier.

Any comments/thoughts gratefully received!

Per the 1880 PO Directory, 15 Gun Street in Spitalfields was the premises of John Harris & Co, Boot Manufacturers. Somewhere near the corner of Brushfield Street

The 1881 census for Gun Street is annotated "No 15"

Hi Shaun

That was quick, thank you!!

Your Google link takes me to Gun Street in Reading, but I have now found Gun Street in London - I might go there when I'm in London next week.. ... but I still can't find 15 Gun street in the 1881 census.... :-[

That's very weird. It takes me to Gun Street in Spitalfields ! I haven't altered anything.

 If you find it on Google maps and then go to street view, you can see that there are still some early buildings there.
