Notes - 1871 English Census St George Parish, London, lists Elise H S Vane, Married, 30, as the wife of a retired teacher, born in Baden. Her husband is not listed but Minnie and Isabelle Vane (2 & 1) are.
1881 English Census St George Parish, London, lists Elise Criddle, Married, 40, Head of house, Housekeeper, born in Germany. No husband listed. Children are Minnie (12), Isabel (11), Edwyn (9), Harry (6), Cecil (5).
Apparently Percy never married Elise. When he was immigrating to Canada with is (real) wife and 4 children in 1882, he persuaded Elise to accompany them as a servant - promising farms etc for the children. Although the children had previously called themselves 'Criddle', he told them that their last name was now 'Vane'.
