Hi to all,
please can someone with access to the 1891 census kindly look for a Clara CUTLER (she was illegitimate & may be using her stepfather's surname of HEALY by 1891).
This is her in the 1881 census:
Household:
Clara CUTLER Serv U 16 B/P: Walton On Thames, Surrey, Occ: General Serv
Dwelling High St
Census Place Esher, Surrey, England
She married in 1893 in Strand and may well be working outside of Surrey by 1891.
Thanks to anyone that can help.
Regards Val.

Hi Val
I can't see her under either surname......could she already be living with the man she married? What was his surname?
Cheers

Thanks for looking Ambly,
she married Charles Goldsmith at St Clement Danes in Jan 1893, he would be listed as a soldier in the 1891 census.
Kind regards Val.
PS Healy may be spelt incorrectly but she's not the Clara Heeley b/p Bermondsey in the census working as a hat trimmer, we had her tucked away in the files for a yr before discovering the error, lol. Thanks!

Hi - I couldn't find her under those two names either, and what's more there doesn't seem to be a Clara b. 1865 -ish walton on Thames who isn't either a wife or daughter, except Clara Keene whose also on the 1881!
-
127 females born Walton on Thames or Walton 1863-1867
Any Clara (Clare etc) on in that list are either findable in the 1901 or in the 1881.
Nothing looks like Clara HEALY or CUTLER with a mangled name!
There is this one though - mindful that your Clara had middle name of Jane....
1901 1891: (RG12)
Servant: Jane HEALY or HEABY - writing is ambiguous, but I think it's HEALY
Age 26, unmarried, Cook, b Walton Surrey
She is working at the Royal Engineers Barracks in Aldershot, Hampshire
RG12 - Piece: 566 - Folio 50 - pg 30
And I can't find a suitable Jane b ca 1865 Walton on the earlier Census, or in BMD....
Also can't find Charles J GOLDSMITH b abt 1867 Middlesex in 1891 - do you happen to know what regiment he was in?
Cheers

Edit (correct year is 1891)

Hi Ambly,
thanks again for spending yet more time searching for me. The entry at the barracks looks interesting and might explain how she came to meet Charles Goldsmith. More ideas to look into :-)
Thanks so much for all your time and thoughtfulness.
Kind regards Val.
Edit:
just noticed it's the 1901 census, this can't be Clara as I have her & Charles with 2 children in the 1901 living in Islington. I'll keep looking, thanks again, Val.

Hi Ambly,
I've only just found your edited message from earlier this year. Thanks so much for correcting the entry. I've not had chance to revisit Clara & Charles for a while and not likely to for some time as I'm busy on another Uni course but this will be added to the 'to do' list for over the Xmas hols :-)
Many thanks Val.
