Hi Lin
My husband's grandfather (Charles Howard born c 1876) was a lamplighter in Great Clacton in 1911. He and his mother and brother and sister were in the Union Workhouse in Tendring in 1881. His mother, Emma Howard born c 1856, later married Noah Bloomfield but I can't find a father or birth registration for Charles or his brother and sister. Census records say St Lukes, Middlesex (Islington) but no luck so far.
There was Alice Bloomfield also in the Workhouse in 1881.
Regards.
