General Notes:
From an email :
My husbands Grandmother was a Francis Maud Emily Potter born 1878 in Stepney/ Whitchapel she was not registered at birth because her parents did not want her to have any of the vacinations. her father was Humphrey Abel Potter born 1852 in London , I have not found out her Mothers single name because the info I found just said Mrs Humphrey Abel Potter so I do not know if this is a connection to you. I know Francis had a sister,
Francis married a Charles Hudson Davis and they lived in Leyton , London E.10
- On Genesconnected the name is given as Arthur Hudson Davis (Confirmed from originator)
