Not certain which workhouse JMT's wife Ellen Sarah is at in January 1883.
Bermondsey Workhouse? St. Olave's Union Workhouse (Bermondsey)?

If she can be located in Jan 1883 the record(s) may provide additional notes as to JMT's desertion.

The first Mrs Ellen Tall is still alive in 1939 and living with son Edward, also in Essex

WOW! Thank you all so much for this information.... I thought I had Joseph's story nailed, but all of these added details mean a complete rewrite! He was partly responsible for building the terrace I live in and in 1881 was living next door with his father hence my interest. The story he gave to the Chelmsford Chronicle seems peppered with mistruths!
Thanks again. Jim

Sorry, just noticed your request, Bestie.The photo isn't the best quality, which is often the case with photos in the scanned newspaper pages.
