You might already have this info........but hey ho! :-)

The county records office MAY have non-conformist baptism records.

Kath. x

To make it worse, they appear to be non conformists so there's no christening records! Why did I start on the inlaws????

This is probably Dorothy in 1901:-

NAME: Dorothy Service
BIRTH: abt 1898 - Islington, London, England
RESIDENCE: Islington, London

parents are:- John Service 32
Emma Service 32

.............so may be able to rule her out as a possible missing child.

there's also these that may also be worth concidering?

Service Julia 46 Islington 1b 197

Possible due name of mother:-

Service Julia Sarah Islington 1b 414


Deaths Sep 1885 (>99%)
SERVICE George Denis 1 Islington 1b 248
SERVICE Julia Sarah 1 Islington 1b 248

Different second name for George but may be a mistake?

ancestry has Julia's second name as Susan:-
Name: Julia Susan Service
Registration Year: 1884
Registration Quarter: Jul-Aug-Sep
Registration district: Islington
Inferred County: London
Volume: 1b
Page: 414

.....so mistake is possible??

EDIT:- Have checked original of death for George and middle name is noted as Denis so that one may be just coincidence??

Many thanks for your help

Aghhh another 3 babies missing!

Although it has been crossed out (probably because he is a widow and therefore not married) Alfred has said he was married 31 years, 9 children born to the marriage and 3 of them had died.
