Notes - The 1895 Kensington South electoral register (Redcliffe Polling District, no. 6355) lists a Charles Mabbs at 174 Ifield Road, dwelling house. It could be this Charles or his son Charles (I62): he was living in Kensington (2 Appleford Road in 1891, 24 Peel Street at his death in 1897), but Ifield Road is about 300 yards from his son’s later home in Hildyard Road. The entry gives no age or occupation.
