Leggett family East London

Thanks for all your help and apologies for the delay in writing back on here.

It does appear that we need to go back to look for siblings of Alfred Edwards and Ellen Norah Redding and their descendants.
I’ve received the following information
1901 census shows a John and Emma Reddin with children Nellie N, Amy B, Mirian A and Sydney D 
1911 census shows a John and Emma Redding living at 7 Cambridge Buildings with children Nellie, Amy, Miriam and Sidney all born in Whitechapel.
It is believed that Ellen was known as Nellie.
It is possible that Ellen Norah’s siblings are:
Amy Beatrice Reddin born 1895 Bethnal Green.  Mother Jones
Miriam Ada Reddin born 1898 Bethnal Green.  Mother Jones
Sydney Donald Reddin born 1900 Bethnal Green.  Mother Jones
Although the surname is spelt differently it matches the 1901 census mentioned above.   If these are correct then Ellen Norah could be Nellie Norah Reddin born 1891 Mile End Old Town.
