Having looked at other pages and compared with other entries, I think the thing in the "How relieved" column is an abbreviation for Workhouse (Wkhse).

Tanks Argyll Gran and Stuart could it be

NRG *O

possibly No relief granted ? it looks as though possibly he applied for help in Hackney and was sent back to West Ham

I feel very sorry for him he was my grandad's older brother, the youngest 3 were taken in by an uncle in Hackney when their mum died in 1904

I can't view this it seems (not paid the higher membership!), but just a quick note for anybody looking, the surname has been spelt as 'Cambell'.
