    1860 -London Electoral Registers
    Isaac Henry Crawcour 2 Church Street Camberwell Green Surrey- share in Freehold house 45 Mansell Street and 61 Great Prescot Street- Isaac shares the properties with his brother Samuel Walter Crawcour who is living at 13 Hutchinson Place Gravesend.
    In 1867 Samuel is at 32 Church Street Camberwell
    By 1870 Isaac is recorded at 4 Church Street with share in properties. He appears to have held the share in properties until at least 1891 when he is living at 11 Talfourd Road Peckham SE.
    By 1900 Isaac is living at 313 Southampton Street but there is no reference to the properties.

    The properties were those of Moses Crawcour uncle to Isaac who died 1858.
    Interestingly, the address of 61 Great Prescott Street was where Rosa MOSES nee HART died in 1880. Rosa was the widow of Henry Moses and daughter of Benjamin Hart my 4x great grandfather. The association between the Hart lines ( there are 2 who married into each other) and the Crawcour is very close through two marriages.
