1901/1911 UK Census Lookup Please

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

TracyJames Report 12 Jun 2011 05:35

Could somene please do a lookup on the UK Census 1901/1911 for the following:-

MOORE Belinda Annie (or Annie or Annie Belinda) nee EDWARDS born 1866/67 Newbury Berkshire ad her husband MOORE William Richard.

They married in 1895 at Paddington.

After reading through some old family letters, etc I think they may have emigrated to New Zealand (as Belinda's brothers Charles & Percival did) but am not sure when so first I'd like to see if they're in the UK Census for 1901 and 1911 if they had any children.

Appreciate your help :-)

So Sorry Sylvia

What can I add to make it easier?

Moore is pretty common name, and we also have to look for Moor, the most common mis-spelling of it. That's in addition to her changes of name!



what do you know about William Richard Moore?

birth date/year, birth place, occupation?


That gives a second avenue of finding her, as it would seem that he would be more like to stay as William!

You say they married in Paddington, which is in London. Do you have any idea, feeling, whatever, as to whether they might have stayed in the London area?



did the letters give any clues?

There is no date of birth, place of birth or occupation for William MOORE written in any of the letters. MOORE is definately spelt that way.

Belinda Annie (Annie Belinda) occupation was listd as Dressmakers Assistant in the 1881 Census.

I have a feeling they may have emigrated to New Zealand as I know definately that 2 of her brothers emigrated and am now trying to trace the remaining sisters and brother.

Hope this Helps :-)

Thanks Heaps Ann of Green Gables and Pat :-)

Just wondering...the 1901 Census record you've posted above for William Moore says he was head of the house. Was there "anyone" else named living at the same address or close by in the same street. Seems strange that he'd be at home on his own...also William's birth place differs from the 1881 Census record you've attached..as I'm not too familiar with boundary/name changes for areas in England over the years can you please tell me if Twyford Berkshire and Spitalfields Middlesex are close to each other. ;-)
