Find Ancestors

Have replied that I have ben unable to find them as a family on 1911.

Message received by pm:

Thank for all the searching yesterday. Sorry Ive not been back .

Williams father was ..Arthur George Nicholls.....I have his marriage cert...It dose not say he was married before...I was just wounder what children he had. I have seen Ancestry...just thought it might be easier finding the 1911 census.

Thank you again...

A possibility but no proof that it is the right William:

There are 2 William Nicholls born Plumstead on the 1911, one b1889 and one b 1891.

To be sure which is the right one, you need to get his marriage certificate to confirm his father's name.
