The document appears to have belonged to a child from the Pullin family, possibly Emma Esther Ann Pullin (1846-1934), whose name appears twice. One page contains a list of her younger brothers and sisters and their ages in 1863. At Emma’s baptism in Paddington in November 1846, her parents identified themselves as servants. She would die unmarried in Ealing (west London) on April 27, 1934, at the age of 87.
