1891

Sunday the 5th of April. Census day again. Everyone is at home today so the census return will show a full house. I wonder what people with make of the information we provide on the form? I'm not sure what they would do with it - maybe one day someone will use it to research the history of the 20th century home.

The 1891 census shows that on the night of the census return Emma (76, Edward's widow - living on own means) was at Broomgrove Lodge with Emma Mary (54, her daughter, also living on own means), and domestic servants Harriet Wood (36, cook), Christianna J Godfrey (35, parlour maid) and Elizabeth Higgins (21, housemaid).

Also ...

  • No. 7 Broomgrove Road is still being occupied by Elizabeth Harwood (living on own means) along with two domestic servants.

  • No. 9 Broomgrove Road is the home of Mary Thomas (also living on own means) and cousin Annett B Wonnop as well as four domestic servants.

  • No. 11 Broomgrove Road is only occupied by three domestic servants.

  • No. 23 Broomgrove Road is the home of the Williams family. William (Professor of Chemistry) appears to be the only member of the family at home that night - apart from three domestic servants.

  • No. 25 Broomgrove Road has no family at home - just three domestic servants

  • No. 27 Broomgrove Road is occupied by the family of George A A Oliver - a Major in the Army Veterinary Department. George, wife Ellen, mother-in-law Mary Nicholson, daughters Lucy L and Agnes M as well as sons Gordon B, Malcom B, Andrew A and George E as well as three domestic servants.

  • No. 29 Broomgrove Road is un-occupied.

Mrs. Bingham has always been very charitable and the Sheffield Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was one such charity she supported.

The Sheffield Independent edition of the 18th of July carried the following notification:

THE LADIES' COMMITTEE of the SHEFFIELD SOCIETY for the PREVENTION of CRUELTY to ANIMALS beg to thank the following Donors, who have so kindly responded to their appeal for DONATIONS to clear the Society form Debt :-
