I believe the children were cared for by members of the Thompson/Raishbrook family when Eliza died 1907 aged 31yrs.
What happened to these children ?:-
Eliza Thompson b.1896 Balham
Arthur Edward Thompson b.1898 Clapham
Henry Thompson b.1900/1 Balham
Nellie Thompson b. 1904
Edith Thompson b. 1906 Balham

The children may have been cared for by Aunts and Uncles:-
Arthur - Stephen Tagg/Edith Annie(Ruby) nee Thompson
Henry and Edith - Helena F Westrop nee Thompson
Eliza and Nellie - John Jones/Annie nee Raishbrook

I am related to Arthur Edward Thompson and would love to know what happened to his siblings.

Many thanks to Jonesey, PollyPoppet & Choccy.
The info that you have given me is about as far as l have managed to get .
l would be grateful to anyone if they know what has happened to these children since 1911.
We always believed that Arthur Edward Thompson b 1898 was an only child until the 1911 census came out when we found he had siblings.
Many thanks again
Linn Thompson
