Notes
- He had at least six children with his second wife, and in 1891 when the census was taken, Teresa's daughter was living with him and his second family.
Percy was a gentleman and lived off money inherited from his grandfather Ashworth, and probably also from his mother's family, the Lunds, who were wealthy Catholics from Hampstead, west London.
He left their only daughter Amelia all his money - or what was left of it - when he died in 1940.

The 1901 census seems to show Percy staying on his own in the "Inns of Court Hotel" Bloomsbury - "Living on means".
