I have started a separate thread with details of Mary Cluley, a prostitute living in Millers Court very shortly after the Kelly murder.
Below are details of two other Millers Court residents in the Infirmary shortly after Kelly's death. The surname of the first is hard to decipher and any alternative readings would be welcome. (see images below)

The only Thomas whose name in the census is a feasible variant of GAVVEN and whose age is compatible came from Wolverhampton and was of Iirsh parentage.
His name is listed in the 1881 census as Thomas GARVEN and the family is listed as follows:
1st House Court, Southampton Street, Wolverhampton, Staffs
Head: Michael Gavern aged 66 born County Mayo (Ireland) - Blind 24 years.
Wife: Catherine Gavern aged 50 born County Mayo - Nail cutter
Children:
Catherine aged 20 - Nail cutter
Michael aged 18 - Iron plate worker
Thomas aged 13 - Iron plater worker
Joseph aged 11
Anna Jane aged 5
All children born in Wolverhampton
The family in 1861 is listed as follows:
No 1 Court, Southampton Street, Wolverhampton
Head: Michael Gavern aged 34 born Ireland - Stone Mind Labourer - Blind
Wife: Catherine Gavern aged 29 born Ireland - Charwoman
Children:
Ellen aged 5
Mary aged 3
Catherine aged 10 months
All born in Wolverhampton
Mother in Law:
Mary Ward aged 50 born Ireland
Brothers in Law:
Thomas Ward aged 22 born Ireland - Bricklayer's labourer
Patrick Ward aged 16 born Ireland - Iron Brazier apprentice.
I have yet to find them in 1861

Chris,
There's a Thomas GAWEN, a carman born in 1865/66, in the 1881 Census. His widowed mother, Catherine, was born in Persia (Iraq) and his elder brother, Charles, in Baghdad. Thomas was born in St Pancras, and the family were still resident there in 1881.

Sam, any idea if the residents of Millers Court had seperate mailing addresses? Would Kelly have had mail delivered to No13?

Chris,
Is it possible to post a few names before and after that one to look at other writings of the letters?
So far I'm getting something like:Hornslothe or Hornslotke which I can't locate on the web.

Sometimes I find these entries easier to read when reversed, so here is part of the list with the "Hemslow" name

Would Kelly have had mail delivered to No13?I'm not sure whether she did or not, but given that it was McCarthy - not Barnett - who stated that Kelly received occasional letters from her "mother" in Ireland, it would seem that the landlord received at least some mail on behalf of his lodgers.

Below is the entry - again, any help very gratefully received!
My guess would be Hanslope (or perhaps Hamslope), from the village of that name in Buckinghamshire.
