I have come to a dead end on this, I am looking for my two Great Aunts they are Ellen Bradley born 1875 and in the 1891 Census, living at 173,Unett Street, Hockley, aged 15 and was a Gold Chain Solderer after that nothing.
The other is Lizzie Bradley, born 11/10/1879, 256,Park Road,All Saints,B/Ham, in the 1901 Census aged 21, living at 101,Smith Street,Hockley, working from Home as a Gold Chain Linker.
From my Granddads Military Records he changed his next of kin from his Father to another, a Sister, but the Name is indecipherable but it is a PO Box in South Africa, which one we've no idea, Granddad was at the Relief of Khartoum, awarded Two Medals from this Campaign 1898, one with a clasp and a number of others and was discharged 28th October 1912, Joined 16th April 1891, lied about his age, at Warwick,
 
This maybe a possibility for Lizzie?
