Personal Details

Birth	1888 (approx.)
	Florence Rose is shown as being born in London in the 1891 census and Bermondsey in the 1901 census. If this is correct then around 1887/1888, her birth should have been registered in the district of St Olave, Southwalk, but as yet I have been unable to identify the registration.
Census	1891 (age 2-3)
	St James Road, Bermondsey The 1891 census shows Henry, Mary and family living in Bermondsey. The following is a transcript of the census return. The original has not yet been examined. Henry C Abbott / Head / Male / 30 / Suffolk, England Mary A C Abbott / Wife / Female / 24 / Suffolk, England Florence R Abbott / Daughter / Female / 3 / London, England Annie L Abbott / Daughter / Female / 0 / London, England Henry Clements / Boarder / Male / 19 / London, England Note that Florence's second initial is given as "R"
Census	1901 (age 12-13)	Bermondsey, Surrey, London
	The 1901 census extract shows family group living in Bermondsey.The original census has not yet been examined, but a copy transcript is as follows:- Henry C Abbott / Head / Male / 39 / Ipswich, Suffolk Mary A C Abbott / Wife / Female / 33 / Ipswich, Suffolk Rose C A Abbott / Daughter / Female / 13 / Bermondsey, London Annie C Abbott / Daughter / Female / 11 / Bermondsey, London Walter C Abbott / Son / Male / 5 / Bermondsey, London Maud C Abbott / Daughter / Female / 0 / Bermondsey, London Note that in this census Henry and Mary's first born child is shown as Rose C A Abbott. Her age suggests that she is the same child as appears in the 1891 census as Florence R Cook Abbott. The absence of "Florence or F" and the addition of and extra "A" suggests that this is a transcription error which will not be confirmed until the original census return is examined.
