  General Notes:

The family had a nurse, Christina Stevenson (Teeny), who stayed with them from the birth of Ernest when she was 19 until 1914 when she was 65 [Olive Shaw 1962 - dates close - should be 69 in 1914] Various photos exist of Teeny with the children [eg 014_036, 004_019].

In 1891there was a Cook,Domestic Servant with the family in London. Her surname is Stevenson but her first name looks like Jane although it could be Tina. Her age looks like 26 and her birthplace Camberwell, London. This was probably the trip referred to by Olive Shaw in 1962 as being in 1891 or 1892 "with wife, Eileen and Olive plus Effie, Eva and nurse". There was also a Kate Mabel Ruth(?) , 14 described as "Nurse"
