    Thank you both - one other question, if I am putting a call out for relatives of the Smedley family in Deptford circa 1913 is this the best way to do it, and am I allowed to do that? I notice this is in the Romany section of the forum and I wasn't aware that was part of Harriet's heritage. At 15 she became a founder member of a new kind of children's colony which played a significant part in the development of education for troubled youngsters in Britain. Harriet herself later had a baby and went to work in the Hop fields in Kent. I have no idea when she died but it's possible she has second or third generation relatives still alive today.

It may be the original poster is no longer part of the forum but I thought I'd offer the information, and also the request for anyone who may be related to Harriet.

    'Here's Harriet Sibthorpe and James Smedley in 1901 (living as man and wife with 2 children). Address: 43, Hale Street, Deptford. All born Deptford.

    James Smedley 25, Flower Hawker
    Harriet, wife, 21, Flower Hawker
    Harriet, dau, 3
    Mary, dau, 4 months.

    Harriet Smedley born July 1st 1898, baptised Jul 24th 1898 at Christ Church, Deptford, parents: James (Coster) and Harriett, add. 61, Church St.'
    Mary Smedley, born Dec 19th 1900, baptised Apr 21st 1901 at Christ Church, Deptford, parents: James (Coster) and Harriet, add. 43. Hale St.
    Well, that's solved the mystery of not being able to find Harriet in this thread.
    That post (#34) was made in another thread
    https://www.british-genealogy.com/fo...ight=sibthorpe
    Apart from details referring to various administrative districts, as far as I can see all the relevant details from the census entry have been transcribed.

    The original poster in that thread (Joc_42) as well as several of the people who posted replies are no longer forum members and privacy laws forbid us from holding any details about them.
