Thanks Marion for this information - the names are correct for Albert Madge and Sarah only. William should be Edward and the Teck is Robert Teek. Not sure who Frith is - was he listed as part of the Holmes family. Do you know if children were listed? Edward and Sarah had 18 month old daughter Frances with them.
