In 1881 George's daughter Emma is aged 4. When George died in 1891 his daughter Emma would have been 14 and his daughter Eliza 7.

The reason I asked if you knew the name of the informant was because I thought that Emma at 14 years would have been young to give the information to the registrar, and I wondered if there was another older child. On reflection, considering Frances' situation with such a young family, I accept that Emma was probably the informant.

PS

Just read your last post to S where you mention the death of Isaac in 1891. Confirms my comment above about Frances' young family.
