England and Wales Census of 1871, in Shoreditch, London^[1] John Bennet, head, 21, born Brentford, Middlesex, plumber
Jessie Bennett, wife, 21, born Devonport, Devonshire. Could this possibly be William's daughter? There is a Jessey Beaver, age 0, born in Devonport, in the 1851 census, but that census does not give information about household composition in the records available on-line^[2]
Amelia Bennett, daughter, 0, London, Middlesex
William Beaver, lodger, 66, widowed, printer compositor, Devonport, Devonshire
William's son, Thomas Alfred Beaver, was married in Shoreditch to a Caroline Coite, in 1867, and then was married in 1875 to Mary Bennett, daughter of James Bennett. Is she a sister of John Bennett?
