Individual Note

In 1891 Laetitia was a boarder at 5 & 7 Claremont Road, Bristol, described in the census as a High Class Girls School, run by a Mrs Sarah Robertson. Her husband James Robertson was Assistant Superintendant Postal Telegraph, and their nieces are Telegraphists. There seemed to be six teachers living at the school, and seven girls boarding. One imagines there were more pupils.
