I wonder if someone could look up a 1901 and 1911 census results on a Eva Lorenz born c 1893. I have a photograph of Eva in an album of my grandmother (holthusen) who lived in Forest Hill Lewisham. I wondered who her parents were and where they lived. My grandmother was german and presume the Lorenz family were as well. A diary also mentions her so I presume they lived near Forest Hill.
Thankyou Chris
