BNA Gloucester Journal - Saturday 29 January 1898

Alice Carpenter, of Abbenhall, the mother of three illegitimate children, was ordered to send two of them to the Board School at the Plump. The circumstances of this case were stated to be somewhat distressing

Given Mike's findings re Amos' occupation and the children's schooling, its interesting that searching the web for Blackpool Cottage Mitcheldean not only suggests it's still there, but it's home to an education business called "Shepherd's Purse" !

I'm not a subscriber so cannot obtain further details, but GenesReunited suggests Amos was in trouble with the school authorities again in 1909.

"Gloucester Journal Gloucestershire, England
