Hi Pat It looks like 25 Gt Western Road, Paddington. If you send me your email via a message - I can send you a copy of the image if you like. Cheers...P

Paula, Sorry not to get back sooner, but GR went crazy and could not get back on. Thank you for the list of names. I do think Rose E Simer is the right one, it is so close to being Limer. I have looked at the 1901 index for any married Rose born Wisbech 1850 plus or minus 5 years, and there are just 6 but none living in London. There is one living Kingston upon Hull- Sculcoates, which is where some of her family moved to, so maybe that is a connection to her. Maybe I`m clutching at straws. I wonder if you could give me the address in Paddington in 1891 if it is not too mucg trouble. Many thanks, Pat.

Tracey, Thanks but I have her birth. Paula, I don`t know if she married, but worth looking into, Kath, This looks promising, can you tell me what year she was in Paddington. Thanks everyone. Pat.

There's a Rose E. Simer, born Wisbech c. 1853 working as a housekeeper in Paddington, London. The enumerator's L's and S's are similar, although I know the birth year is out by a couple of years. Kath. x

My 2xgt.aunt Rose Eleanor Limer born 1850 in Wisbech Cambs. seems to disappear after the 1881 census. Cannot find her in 1891 or 1901, nor find a marriage or a death for her. Any suggestions appreciated. Pat.
