      Shows Emily Agnes PEACHEY, daughter of Thomas and Jane Louisa, father a Farmer
    Gender Female 
    Education 1871 
    Scholar 
    • The family had a Governess boarding with them, who was presumably teaching the children. With even the one year old Edith shown as a scholar(!) perhaps she had some responsibility for all of the children, although a nursemaid was also employed.
    Education 1881 
    Scholar

    • Boarder in the house of schoolmaster Frederick Westlake and his family.
    Occupation 1901 
    Matron 
    • A matron would usually be found in a school or institution, but Emily was boarding with a family. However, the head of the household was a schoolmater, and in the next door house (19 Crosby Road South) was an assistant schoolmaster, Bernard Smith, and 5 scholars. Bernard Smith was (like the scholars) shown as 'boarder', not head, while one of the scholars was shown as nephew as well as boarder. It appears that Frederick Westlake was the head of both households, and no doubt Emily was matron to the scholars at no. 19.
      The scholars were aged 13 to 18, 3 were British but one of these was born in Japan and the other two were Spanish.
