The CRAIGIE family is at 1 Russel Place from at least 1871 census to 1881 census, via Ancestry London Electors.

Is there a family connection between the FIMISTERs and the CRAIGIEs?

Wivenhoe,
Not on the Susan Fimister (nee Heggie) side that I have come across, Susan is the blood relative.
Susan met James Fimister in Renfrewshire and they left soon after for Constantinaple.
He being Paisley born from Irish family with one brother.
They claim to have married in Constantinople in 1868 and returned prior to her death in 1872.
1 Russell Pl does seem to be full to the rafters in 1871 & 1872 and very accommodating to take in a person dying of TB along with her husband & child.
Still, it may have been a large enough home to rent out a room.
Thank you for the info, I shall certainly be searching further.
A perplexed John.

ShaunJ & hanes teulu, thank you for your contributions.
I am 'almost' certain there is no connection between the Craigie and Fimister family and thank you for the link to Booth Poverty Map.

Thank you for the thread.
 
As so often happens, I went off at a tangent, deciding to check out The Artichoke Tavern. An 1871 newspaper headline "WHAT ARE WHITEBAIT" (a particular favourite of mine) claimed "It should be known that the Artichoke Tavern, at Millwall, was the house under whose rooftree the original and earliest dish of the bait was cooked".

regards

It is almost disappointing when there is no Tangent to go off on.
I love them too.
