Hi
Thanks for replies  Yes Kezia married George Spenser Markwick then John Henderson. in 1896.What I am trying to find is what happened to her mother in 1861 & 71 and where were the children. I have Kezia i 1871 as domestic servant
Caroline West nee phillips I have a gap in census 1861-71-81 like I said in previous  post. I would like to think the children were with her but unable to establish this.
Edward Henry West born 1851 baptism address 16 Bulls Gardens, Chelsea  I have found what I think is him St Mary's Newington it says he's a clerk Orphan, Kezia Elizabeth born Feb 1853 18 Green St Chelsea (she is my Gt Grandmother) only census I have'nt got for her is 1861.
Henry George West 1855 lived at 3 Wood Street Chelsea I have no census records for him but waiting on a marriage certificate to confirm it's the right Henry West. Caroline Emma West b 1857 abode 18 Bulls Gardens Chelsea she marries Frederick Hollicks and has her mother Caroline West staying with them in 1891 census .
The children's father Edward West died 21 Sept 1856 at 3 Henry Street Chelsea.

I was looking forward to see if  Caroline was living with one of her children. Perhaps she took on someone else's name

The children's father Edward West died 21 Sept 1856 at 3 Henry Street Chelsea.

If you have ancestry, Chelsea relief book, north division
End of September quarter / beginning December quarter 1856
Caroline West received 3 shillings and 3 bread loaves

I thought there were dittoes, but probably they are not from the totals!

Who are these at 17 Bulls Gardens, Chelsea, in 1871?
Piece 88 folio 60 page 114
Caroline West Head Widow 60
Edwd West Son 35 Plasterer
Elizth West Daur 30 Servant
Henry West Son 27 Labourer

All born Chelsea.
They look rather like the missing West family, but those ages are all twenty years out!
