Margaret "Mog" Cheeks

She said at McKenzie's inquest:
"I am married, and my husband's name is Charles Cheeks, when he is with me. He is a bricklayer and has not been living with me for three years."
In 1881 there was a couple by the name of Cheek /Cheeks living at 10 West Street, Bethnal Green. They appear to have been listed twice, their ages and places of birth being identical.
The first listing is:
Head: M Cheek aged 34 born Bethnal Green - Bricklayer
Wife: Margaret Cheek aged 32 born Bethnal Green
The second listing at the same address reads:
Head: C Cheeks aged 34 born Bethnal Green
Wife: Margaret Cheeks aged 32 born Bethnal Green.
In 1871, Charles is listed as follows:
20, Old Castle Street, Hackney
Charles Cheek aged 25 born Waltham Cross - Bricklayer
