Cotton family
« on: Thursday 19 January 06 08:03 GMT (UK) »
I'm helping a friend with their family research and we've hit a brick wall.

The Cotton Family lived in London the father Alfred was born 1851 st pancras the wife Susannah was born 1852 in Walworth. Susannah died in 1891 and after that time we cannot find any of the children or Alfred.
The Children were

William Cotton 1875 Bloomsbury
Elizabeth Susannah Cotton 1882 Islington
Clarke Cotton 1885 St Pancras
Annie Cotton 1888 Islington.

Any ideas or help would be very appreciated

Many thanks

 Hi Caroline

I'm doing a bit of housekeeping and noticed this older request.  Are you still looking for this information or found in the meantime?

If we don't hear from you shortly I'll assume the latter and move this to the 'Completed' section.

Regards
Biker

Hello Biker,

Yes, I'm still looking for any of the Cotton children. My hunch is though that they were adopted.
I doubt anyone will be able to help further, so feel free to house keep this post.
Many thanks though for asking
Best wishes

Is Clerkenwell 1891 census  your last known place for them?

    As Hester Randall 74 a lodger may be worth following.
