Isabella Webster married Peter Faux/Fuchs 1871 father James
Looking for this woman and her family prior to her mariiage, which is on Ancestry.
Her father was given as a sawyer. In later censuses she says she was born at Deptford. Was her father working in the dockyard? He could gave been from anywhere.

Gut feeling, with a name like Isabella, I'd be looking for roots in Sunderland or further north. There was a huge amount of coastal traffic between Rotherhithe, Deptford, Greenwich and the North East.

Thanks, Phoenix. We had thought along similar lines.
My daughter is researching her husband's family. Peter Fuchs (later Fox) was a German baker

Oh dear, I've found I posted this a few years ago. No progress since then.

I can't remember, Phoenix. Not at home, so no access to my records at present. I'll investigate though.

Mother's name Maria looks good as your Isabella has a daughter Maria on the 1881 census.

The James married to Maria is some kind of sawyer in 1861!
1861 census Think that settles it! Oh, and there are possibles for Isabella on the 1861 and 1871 censuses as servant - in 1861 age 16 born Aldgate, in 1871 age 23 born London.
