Many thanks everyone.
Alma is a distant relation but I didn't want two little orphaned girls to be missed. There was money as it was paid to Muellers Orphanage but no relatives would take them.
Thanks again

Wondered about this for 1881 (she gives Saul as place of birth in 1891)- Image looks like surname Lawrence:

Alma was born Q2 1862 (Vol 69 page 277) in Saul, Gloucestershire to Job & Hannah (nee Mace) Lawrence.
In 1865 both her parents drowned. Her sister Emily was admitted to the Mueller Orphanage in Mar 1865. Alma was admitted in mid-late 1865 or so it appears from correspondence I have seen.
1871 census lists an 'Alina B Lawrence' born in Amberley, Gloucestershire aged 8 (piece 2548 folio 14 p19) which I am sure is her.
I cannot find her in the 1881 census. But she pops up in 1883 as a witness to her cousin's marriage (Owen Ely) in Amberley, Gloucestershire.
If anyone has information it would be much appreciated.
