Thank you for your reply.

I am also descended from Henry Rumsey (one of my g-g-grandfathers) through his daughter Elizabeth (b 10 Oct 1849 at 3 Cork St Camberwell).

Elizabeth married Zachariah Frederick Turner on 17 Sept 1869 in Poplar. As far as I know they only had one child Alfred Turner born 26 Feb 1874 at 30 Risterne Place, Poplar. Alfred is my grandfather.

On 12 Dec 1877 Elizabeth dies at Bethnal House which appears to be a sort of Asylum. The death cert records that she died of General Paralysis and appears to have been there since Feb 1876.

I am unsure about Henry Rumsey's dob. An IGI record for Elias Rumsey born Appleshaw and married to Mary Herold gives children as Elias b abt 1816 and Henry b abt 1818 but other sources would seem to imply 1823. Do you have any other information?
