Gay, I've found them at:- 268 and 71 (sic) High Street Stratford LINES John Montague Head Married M 37 Grocer and Provision Merchant Park St Southwork SE LINES Nellie Sarah Wife Married 8 years F 34 Harpenden Herts LINES Nellie Muriel Daughter F 2 Stratford Essex LONG Elizabeth Rose Servant Single F 20 General Servant Domestic Stepney London That was taken from the transcript, being easier to copy. I've made no serious attempt at formatting, but left a double space between entries. The original census form is signed "J. Montague Lines" and the address appears to be 269 & 271 - the adjacent properties are nos. 267 and 273. Nellie had 1 "child born alive" and 1 "child still living". John states he is an "Employer" and his place of work is "at home". From the peculiar way John writes a "9", I would say his age is actually 39, not 37. His house/shop had 8 rooms. John's birthplace had been mis-transcribed. It was Southwark SE. I think I've extracted all the meat to be had - please let me know if you need me to gnaw the bone.

Gay I am curious why you thought John Montague would be a blacksmith as his father also John was a grocer at the same address. His grandfather Henry (born Great Gaddesdon) was a blacksmith as was his grandfather Joseph (born Bowes Heath). Your John's father was at school in 1861 and already a grocer in 1871 (in Southwark). The Lines blacksmiths have been well researched. Are you familiar with the family history pages on www.wheathampstead.net ?
