Henry Alfred Arnsby (1828 - 1887)
Edmund Arnsby (1832 - 1877)
Samuel Robert Arnsby (1834 - ? )
Charlotte Sophia Rebecca Arnsby (1836 - 1901 unconfirmed)

On October 19th 1828, at the Christening of their eldest son Henry, Samuel and Charlotte's 'Place of Abode' listed as Vauxhall Walk, Lambeth.

Eleven years laster when the 1841 Census was done we find the family living on Moneyers Street, St. Leonard's Shoreditch, Middlesex, England. Samuel's occupation is listed as a 'Milkman'.

Ten years later, when the 1851 Census was taken (March 30, 1851), we find the family living at 9 Mark Street, Tower Hamlet, Shoreditch, Middlesex, England.

On the 1851 Census, Samuel's occupation was listed as a 'Cheese Monger' and Charlotte's occupation is listed as 'Monthly Nurse'.

On son Edmunds' Marriage Certificate, Samuel's occupation is listed as a 'Traveler'.

On daughter 'Sophia's' Marriage Certificate in 1865 we have Samuel's occupation was listed as being a 'Butcher'. However, we have Charlotte's Death Certificate that was issued in 1865 and on it she is listed as being the widow of Samuel Arnsby, a 'Milkman'.

Samuel's occupations:

We do not know when Samuel died and we do not know where Samuel and Charlotte are buried.

A professional Geneloaoglist hired by Eileen Marie Arnsby wrote that a possible burial grounds/cemeteries for Charlotte:

• St. John Baptist Hoxton Burial Ground
• St. Thomas Square Freehold Burial Ground, Mare Street, Hackney
• Victoria Park Cemetery, Hackney
• Tower Hamlets Cemetery
• Brookwood Cemetery, Woking, Surrey
• The Parish Church of St. John Baptist, where Samuel and Charlotte had their children

Children Samuel, Charlotte, and Edmund were baptised (1834 -1842) a short distance from Allerton Street.

The burial registers of the church were searched at the Greater London Record Office (ref. P91/JNB/85). The registers end in 1868, but as there are only four entries for the 1860s - none of them Charlotte - the Search Room Officer suggested that the churchyard might have been closed for burials in the 1850s, and the four burials in the 1860s were interred in existing graves.

Note from Eileen Maries' papers:

(1850 Metropolitan Interments Act) forbidding further periods in churchyards. The burial registers for St. Thomas Square (ref.PRO RG8/41) and Victoria Park (ref. PRO RG8/46) were searched at the Public Record Office.

There were no burials at St. Thomas in 1865, and very few after1860; the burials at Victoria Park were searched for January and February 1865 without success.

Hoxton now falls within the London Borough of Hackney. The Hackney Archives Department suggested Tower Hamlets (City of London & Tower Hamlets Cemetery, just to the south of the Mile End road) and Brookwood Cemetery, which I think highly unlikely, being many miles outside London.
