*Sheliah on original census entry. Name is commonly spelt Sheila.
#On 1901 census she is described as Daisy Aldridge, step daughter, aged 12, born Whitechapel, London, deaf and blind. Therefore, her stated aged of 27 years 8 months is misleading because she is found with her grandparents on 1891 census aged 2. On 1939 register, her date of birth is given as Aug 1890 but she appears to have been born in 1889.
With regard to the grandchildren in this household, they are either the offspring of one of James' son by his first marriage or the base children of Daisy Aldridge.
