Please will you look for Ernest Albert Lamdin 1873
living Medway Kent

Can you check his age because he is born in 1878 in Aldershot Hampshire on the 1881 census

Also can you see if his wife Elizabeth Louisa 1878 Gillingham Kent is with him. I can only see an Elizabeth Louisa age 3 on the free search

Thank you very much

Transcription error - the image says 34 as it was entered in the MALE age column section, so that was crossed out and put 33 in FEMALE age colum, but you can see 4 was on top of the 2nd 3 so there for makes it 34.

Looking at the image again.. I'm convinced that Ernest age is 33 as there's a fold crease on the 2nd digit of his age.

Quinsgran.. Have you heard of Medway Ark?

You could try and find their marriage and births of their children.
