“1911 Census Clement is 25, single and still at home with his parents at 12, Cranfield Villas, West Norwood. He is working as a Corn Merchants Assistant. He later bought the business probably after he served his time in the Navy through the First World War. His nieces Joan Emily & Betty Vertue like to go to Clements business and play shops with all the bird seed and dog biscuits along with picking out and eating all the peanuts from the parrot food!”

Married Ernest D Crouch in 1933 in Croydon. I believe this is David Ernest Crouch, born 1900 as I can find no Ernest David Crouch.

“Amy worked at her brother Clement`s Corn Chandlery & Seed Merchants business in West Norwood High Street. In the 1911 Census Amy is still at home with her parents and brother Clement at 12 Cranfield Villas, West Norwood. Although she is 21 and single there is no occupation listed for her.”
