HI Catherine. Yes ths is the one I have assumed to be the lady in question. I seem to recall that Alice Tong is the daughter of one of her married sisters.

Is the Martha Eliza Reeve you found in 1911 married ?
I thought the question of children was only asked of married women ?

I hope that someone can help solve this one please. In 01 Jan 1892 edition of Reynolds Newspaper, there is a court report re my gt grandfather Orlando Powell summoned to answer a case brought by Martha Reeves of Leyton, basically for maintenace for their illigitimate child. I have found a Martha Eliza Reeve born in 1867 in Bethnal Green, who appears living with her mother at various addresses in Leyton through until the 1911 census, but no record of the child. The 1911 census is marked no children. Any ideas how the identity of the child; sex unknown; can be found?
