  Notes	In addition to Emma, there is another child who had died at the 1911 Census. There does not appear to be any obvious records in BMD or London baptisms. Restricting the birth and death to Lambeth give Dora Gladys b1904 Benjamin Joseph (given as HAMP) b1905 Alternatively looking at birth registrations with a mother maiden name of WELTON, with soundex switched on, anywhere in the country does not identify another child. I believe that the mother maiden name is unreliable before 1911, though it clearly picks up the other 4 children, so this might be a reason. It might be a mistake, but this seems unlikely. It might have been a stillborn, and not registered, but still something of importance to the parents of course.

• Notes

  1881 Census entry not obvious but the most likely found so far would be as a drapers assistant, aged 21, in Aldgate High St. If it is correct, she would have been born in Coopers Rd, SE London. 1939 register entry and thus birth, assumed correct given that she would be with her (unmarried) daughter.
