In 1991 they now had their only daughter, doubtless all the sons would have been away at school and Gorgina’s unmarried sister-in-law Mary was with them at Woodrough Lane, Bramley, Hambledon, Surrey:

In 1901 she and her daughter Sybil were in an apparently small house in Hastings, no live-in servants.
I wonder if this was a temporary or a permanent arrangement?

Her children were, from the censuses, all born in London

Name                        Birth Year
Arthur L B      Thesiger    1873  
Bertram L       Thesiger    1875
Ernest F G      Thesiger    1879
Sibyl           Thesiger    1883

From the GRO indices:

Name:                                 Mother's Maiden Surname:
THESIGER, ARTHUR LIONEL BRUCE      STOPFORD  
GRO Reference: 1872  D Quarter in SAINT GEORGE HANOVER SQUARE  Volume 01A  Page 33
THESEGER, BERTRAM  SACKVILLE       STOPFORD  
GRO Reference: 1875  M Quarter in SAINT GEORGE HANOVER SQUARE  Volume 01A  Page 399
THESIGER, ERNEST FREDERIC GRAHAM   STOPFORD  
GRO Reference: 1879  M Quarter in CHELSEA  Volume 01A  Page 362
THESIGER, SIBYL ADELINE            STOPFORD-SACKVILLE  
GRO Reference: 1883  M Quarter in CHELSEA  Volume 01A  Page 424

I have queried the spelling of Bertram’s surname with the GRO.  It was OK on the old paper indices.
