Interesting
What I want to know is what happened between Charles and Emily between the 1871 and 1881 census. In 1881 Charles is found to be a lodger at a common lodgers place in Wolverhampton and by 1891 he is a pauper in the Wolverhampton Union Workhouse. To make the mystery deeper children are still being born to Emily up until 1888. Do these children belong to Charles? To make things worse, in 1891 Emily lists herself as a widow on the census but Charles is still alive at this point. No love lost there! What unfortunate events took place for Charles to end up a pauper? His other brothers (William Henry and Frederick) were also locksmiths but appeared to be successful.
