A name picked almost at random. I did have an aunt whose maiden name was Haddock and it always made me laugh.
Sarah Haddock was born in Lambeth around 1850. In 1911 she's living at 36 Maxted Road East Dulwich aged 61 with two grown up daughters Lottie and Rose. Lottie is a shirt ironer and Rose is a cashier in a restaurant. Sarah has six living children and has been married for 34 years - her husband is not in or not around.
In the 1890s they were living in Edmonton (north of the river!!) in Palmers Green Road. Her husband John was born there so she must have gone north for him. First child in Lambeth, second one in Walworth third in Southgate. In 1891 John Haddock is a general labourer.
In 1881 they're at 6 William Place Walworth. That's just off the north end of Walworth Road, by Prospect Place. John works as a carman and they've two toddlers, Sarah and John junior.
