This looks like Florence Eva in 1891.
The birth year and place for her mother (widow) Sarah Ann are completely wrong, but the household next door is a bricklayer called George James Williams.

So, going back to the original post - who on earth died in the explosion? We've accounted for quite a number of them.

Forget the explosion?
I have.
Or just George.

George James Williams (labourer)
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1866
Age: 24
Spouse Name: Emma Botley
Spouse Age: 29
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 4 May 1890
Parish: Willesden St Mary
Borough: Brent
Father Name: George Williams (bricklayer, dec)
Spouse Father Name: Edward Botley (decorator, dec)
Register Type: Parish Register

Both of Holly Lane, Willesden. Witnesses William James Stilton and John Salmon?

If that death that I posted for George was correct (just before son's marriage?) and it was an explosion, you can look to see who else died in the same quarter in Hendon. But if they are just unrelated tenants in a house there are too many. There are even, probably, mothers and children dying in childbirth registered at similar times etc

I wonder if this was Arthur, he is a scholar at the Industrial school, birth place matches that of Frederick & Annie on the 1881 census:

Arthur Williams
Age: 7
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1884
Gender: Male
Where born: Sudbury
Civil parish: Lewisham

If he had been in trouble, it could explain his admission into the army once old enough.

1891 Holly Lane Willesden
"Holly Lane was off Church Road and lead to what was known as Neasden Power Station. I don't know if the power station is still there but that is where a lot of electricty was generated just for the London Transport Service for the tube trains. To get to Holly Lane it was about half-way down Church Road opposite the Post Office for Curzon Crescent."

Hi Patchem,

It certainly looks like Frederick , Was looking for Florence Eva Williams & Maud Susannah O Williams in 1911 census excellent piece of work finding info

Kind Regards

Chris

Thank-you, Chris

Sorry to bother u again cant seem to find who Florence Eva or Maud Susannah Williams married or didnt they marry anyone? Would be helpful to know
