Have you checked that the birth date and place of birth on the Thomas Henry Whitehouse marriage has not been misscribed? For example the wrong line written down and someone else on the marriage page given Alices details?

Hi Lucy,
I checked again on family search for the marriage and then the 1901 census and it definitely is not the right Alice,her age is out by two years which is no big deal but her place of birth is Sydenham, Kent.
Back to the drawing board :-)

Someone previously mentioned on here an Alice Piggott at 98 Gifford Street, Caledonian Road. .It was a pub so she may have lived in living quarters.
The landlord in 1910 was Batchelor Horace Henry, so might be worth checking 1911 census to see if any Alice E Piggott listed, just a thought?

1939 register also has an Alice E Piggott living in Thurrock U.D, Essex and born 1868. Also living with her is Sarah G Mawis (Mewis born 1859) )

Hi Lucy,
I checked the Thurrock one a few days ago and it is definitely not my Alice. The Thurrock one was born in Purfleet. I still have to check 98 Gifford Street, which sounds promising, I will try looking on Freecen as I don't have a sub to ancestry or FMP.
Thanks again from June

Hi Lucy,
I asked a friend to check the 1911 census for me and she said the landlord had changed by 1914 to Alfred Hodnett so she searched for him on the 1911 and here he is at 98 Gifford Street – its described as an off licence so there aren’t any lodgers.
At least it's another one for me to eliminate!
Regards June
