Research Note

In 1841, Susanna was working at the “White Hart” in Giltspur Street as a servant, and it may be a coincidence, but living in the same premises was a William Butler, journeyman baker. His age, rounded in the census, was given as twenty-five, suggesting that he was one or other of the two cousins of Gamaliel, these were William the son of his uncle William, or William the son of his uncle James.
