This is rather sad as Harry obviously still has a pretty young family.

In the 1891 census entry, at 47, Gough Street, you have Harry, [43], engine
fitter, wife Harriet [43], daughter Ada [17], pupil teacher school [don't
know what that means], daughter Annie [15], shop assistant, son Harry [11]
and daughter Ellen [8]. This is entry 336. Then entry 337, underneath,
repeats the street number, 47 - the family there being John Leary [33],
shipwright, wife Ann E [23?, I think - presumably the informant], daughter
Ann E. [7] and son John [5].

I have no idea of the significance of the same street number being given
[possibly the front and back of the house?]. No doubt someone on the List
can clear this up.

All best wishes,

Karena.
