I wonder if anyone ould help me trace COURTENAY CHARLES WILSON born Ipswich 1901. Ive tried to find him on the 1911 census but no luck so I thought maybe someone else might be able to trace him. I know he spent some time in a Dr Barnados home as a child. Were they included in the census?

Any help would be much appreciated :-)

Do you know that he remained in England as many of the Barnado children were sent abroad at that time - mainly to Canada.

Do you have reference of him after 1901 in any records?

Thanks for the replies. I know he stayed in UK and married so the marriage looks like it may be the right one. I know he died in 1960s so that's prob right as well. Its given me something to go on. I think certificates are going to be the next step. The Ellingford line looks interesting. I;ll have to look into that as well.

Thanks for all your help

Jackie :-)
