There is a emily moss in an institute which is 10 years later so the child Edith may have died!!!

Suppose a child could have been born January and christened in August ... especially if there was a problem causing the child to be looked after by a foster mother for a while.

However, it's not certain that the child's surname was Moss anyway.
No birth showing on freebmd , surname on 1881 census was simply ditto underneath Moss, and not seeing an entry for her in 1891

Andrew Report 19 May 2013 18:29

If birth of 14 Aug is correct, then its not the same Edith as the census was in April.


Census says 3 months old, so born Jan/Feb 1881

The baptism for Edith gives a birth date of 14 Aug 1881 which fits with the information Maddie found.
A brother was Baptised the same day, Herbert William Moss, born 20 Nov 1883.
Father was a Butcher.

1881
Just for reference

Chare. Moss 52 -widow - Wingfield, Suffolk
Emily Moss 19 -dau - Hoxton, Middlesex
Edith Moss- 3 months - nurse child - Hackney


Edith's surname was just dittoed.
A nurse child is usually someone being fostered for payment so may not be related at all

Sonya Report 19 May 2013 17:30

I am trying to trace Edith Moss born in Hackney in 1881 Living 1881 with Charlotte Moss a widow (52) and her daughter Emily Moss(19) at 3 Albert Villas West Ham. I havve traced Charlotte through to her death and am fairly sure that Emily married Joseph Taylor 1885 and had a family. Edith is registered as "Nurse child" on census and I cannot trace her further.
Please has anyone any idea where I can look for a birth without the mothers name.
Thank you
