Hi All

Although I have the 1911 Census, I cannot find Sydney J S R Scothon anywhere. I have tried name varients ect. Anyone got any ideas apart from him not availing himself for the census. He died in 1944. Thanks for any help.

Hi Tempest

Sydney Scothon married in Aston warwickshire in 1912, so sadly this cant be him. Thanks all the same. It does seem that Sydney was simply not on the census for some reason. Thanks to everyone.
Keep up the good work. Regards Barry

Hi ALL

I am doing this for a friend and dont have the certificate or info on whether he served in the forces. I was hoping the 1911 would throw light on those questions.
