Their Children





Who They Were

Henry is another mystery. In the 1851 census, there is, living in St Mary Newington, a Sarah Bryer, widowed, aged 64 (born 1787 in Rochester KEN), and her son Henry, also widowed, aged 38, born circa 1813 in Rochester KEN, whose occupation is given as Cotton Jappaman. The dates of birth (although not the places) and the names fit, and the occupations of this Henry and the Henry who died in the workhouse are so similar as to make it a certain match. So who was his wife that died before 1851?

Where They Lived

In 1849, when he registered his father's death, Henry was living at 18 Townsend Street Southwark.
