1881
Keppel Cottages intersection of Elms Lane and Harrow Road

nearest church St Andrews Sudbury http://www.standrewssudbury.co.uk/

1891 Holly Lane Willesden
"Holly Lane was off Church Road and lead to what was known as Neasden Power Station. I don't know if the power station is still there but that is where a lot of electricty was generated just for the London Transport Service for the tube trains. To get to Holly Lane it was about half-way down Church Road opposite the Post Office for Curzon Crescent."

I wonder if this was Arthur, he is a scholar at the Industrial school, birth place matches that of Frederick & Annie on the 1881 census:

Arthur Williams
Age: 7
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1884

Where born: Sudbury
Civil parish: Lewisham
County/Island: London

Sub-registration district: Sydenham
ED, institution, or vessel: 31
Neighbors: View others on page
Piece: 526

If he had been in trouble, it could explain his admission into the army once old enough.

If that death that I posted for George was correct (just before son's marriage?) and it was an explosion, you can look to see who else died in the same quarter in Hendon. But if they are just unrelated tenants in a house there are too many. There are even, probably, mothers and children dying in childbirth registered at similar times etc

Forget the explosion?

Or just George.

So, going back to the original post - who on earth died in the explosion? We've accounted for quite a number of them.
