Did You Know?
- When sisters Charlotte Jane Fiveash, Alice Maud Fiveash and Florence Fiveash married they gave their father's occupation as 'Plumber'. In fact, their father Robert Fiveash had been a line worker; it was their first step-father Isaac Edward Behenna who worked as a plumber.
- Florence Fiveash was baptised twice, once in 1885 and once in 1893, with different birth dates each time.
- Freda Sibyl Williams told me that when her grandmother Fanny Ann Miller was between marriages she used to put her children in the workhouse. Freda may have been right on this one: one of the children, Lilian Georgina Daisy Fiveash, was living at the St Catherine's Home and Refuge for Friendless and Fallen Girls in 1900, and in 1901 another, Florence Fiveash, was an inmate of the Refuge Society Home in West Ham.
- In 1901 Florence Fiveash's fellow Refuge Society Home inmates included women from Wales and Nova Scotia.
