Hi to all,
please can someone with access to the 1891 and/or 1901 kindly look for a Mary (Mary Ann) GOLDSMITH. Birth yr abt 1883 making Mary abt 7 or 8 in 1891 and 17-18 in the 1901. Father should be Charles Goldsmith if still living. She's a child from a second marriage so I don't know her mother's name. Details taken from her brother's WW1 Pension records, he was born to the first marriage but his mother died young.
The family lived in St Pancras, Holborn area of London.
Many thanks! Regards Val.

Hi Meliora,
thank you so much for all your hard work, most appreciated. Unfortunately the info you've posted looks to be a different family. Late last night I dug out the WW1 pension records for my hubby's Gt-grandfather Charles Goldsmith and it states he was discharged to his sister Mrs M.A Chadwick's home at Digby Walk, Bethnal Green. A little bit of researching and her marriage entry led me to this family living at Digby Walk back in the 1881 census with both a Charles & Mary Ann as children:
Joseph G. GOLDSMITH 37 Bethnal Green Labourer
Eliza " Wife 34 Shoreditch Brush Drawer
some info & children removed so as not to infringe copyright
Charles GOLDSMITH Son Male 2 Bethnal Green
Mary A. GOLDSMITH Dau Female 2 m Bethnal Green
Just waiting on Charles Goldsmith's marr cert to hubby's Gt-grandmother Clara Jane Healy to see if this is the correct family with him as a child. When I requested the lookup's for Mary Ann I was hoping to try and find a poss family by locating Mary Ann as there were just too many Charles Goldsmith's, this 1881 has entry has hopefully done that.
I don't think I'll manage to catch Charles in the 1891 as he may be in the army then (1891- 1899).
Thank you so much again Meliora for the time you took to do the lookup, such a nice gesture and a lot of work.
Best wishes, Val.
