The Lilian K Poulter Ivy is referring to is living with these people:

POULTER ARTHUR RICHARD M 1905 6 St Pancras London
HOUSEHOLD POULTER ARTHUR ROBERT M 1869 42 St Pancras London

HOUSEHOLD POULTER SARAH F 1870 41 St Pancras London

The parents marriage looks to be this one:

Hi patricia
First of all the reason for the 'nudge' is so that the message is put to the top of the list - timewise - particularly if there hasn't been any update/interest for a while.It took me a while to cotton on to this.
Checking all the Elsie May Poulter possibilities I think I have found 9 between 1909 and as late as 1927. There is one from Kingsclere which may be the one on genes reunited down as Hampshire, if this hasn't been eliminated already it may be worth a check .Also I have noticed one born in Howden is also down as being married in 1930 in Howden so hopefully she can be eliminated which leaves seven to check. I think it will only be a matter of time but I'm sure you will solve the mystery.
Please keep us updated

Hi Janet
l have in fact sent for several Elsie M. b.certficates. The Howden one 1911 didn't have a middle name of May.
The ones l have are
SEP. 1913 ST.OLAVE
JUN 1909 KINGSCLERE
JUN 1909 MEDWAy
MAR 1911 LEEDS {no middle name just Elsie}
SEP 1909 EDMONTON. (name of Nellie May was entered after registration}
I still have a 1920 one in Hull to send for yet.
But which is the right one, Where do l go from here?

It might be worth looking for other Hall/Poulter births and trying to rule those out as being Elsie's children.
