From a descendant:

Henry had a shop in Devons Rd, Bow. it was a second hand shop. He also bought in rags ect. from rag-men sorted it and baled them and sold them on to merchants.

In his old age he lived with his daughter Violet who we think lived in Leyton.The family never kept in touch, neither son Henry or George said much about them. When his granddaughter was a school girl she used to clean his flat over the shop on Saturdays.
