A Fanny Hatch married Abraham Tenny in 1855:
but I think that's her daughter, as she's shown as aged 44 and born in Gainsborough in 1871.Last edited by Mary from Italy; 10-10-16, 21:53.

Sempstress seems to be an old fashioned word used for seamstress but is apparantly still alive and well in the Collins Dictionary.
Jerrems Street is still there.
Onock - have not found this but there is a Gainsborough Workhouse site online
http://www.workhouses.org.uk/Gainsborough/ ............... it states on this website that they only took inmates from THOnock from 1895. Probably transferred because she came from Lincolnshire originally.
This would have been a transfer from another workhouse - Mile End Old Town had a Workhouse named Thonock. Website with many inmates pictures on it but not named unfortunately although there should be an 1881 census: The actual records of Thonock Workhouse are stated to be in Lincoln Archives. Sue
