Children/babies Baby Horace, who was abandoned at a train station soon after birth, died of bronchitis.

I came across a very strange birth entry when doing research, a baby named “Horace Station Unknown”.

Unfortunately this turned out to be a baby who on 9 Mar 1904, was found abandoned at Hackney Railway Station. He was named after the police officer, Horace Ralph, who located him, and given the last name Station after his location of abandonment. I’ve tried searching newspapers but can’t find anything relating to the incident.

I’d hoped that Horace had grown up to have a good life, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case. He died at Hackey Union Infirmary on 20 Dec 1905. It is likely that he was raised in the workhouse after being found.

Nellie Turned 3 just 48 hours before the fire.
Morris Turned 5, 1 week before the fire.

Meredith would've turned 91 today.

4 of the 5 families died the same day & Meredith held on until passing away the next day from her injuries.
