Brian,
Thank you for your help now and in the past. I feel that the child's name was more than likely Eugene which was spelt as it would have sounded allowing for the french pronounciation. I also feel that the surname could have been incorrectly spelt. Brian, if you have access to the 1891 census could I impose on you to see if this child or anyone by that surname is included.
Many thanks,
Annette.
