Hello :-)

Could someone please help me find some information about my relative Thomas Allingham.

I know he was married to his wife Harriett Goble in 1882 and in the 1911 census he is deceased.

Could you please look at the 1901, 1891 and 1881 census to find out when he was alive and information on his where abouts and family.

Im not sure of the date he was born or died but i no his wife was born in 1864 and they all lived in Malling Kent.

Thank you

The marriage certificate will give you information about his Father to confirm, or otherwise, what has been found here:
Marriages Sep 1882
Allingham Thomas Malling 2a 915
GOBLE Harriett Ann Malling 2a 915

No, you do not get date of birth on censuses.

You need to buy the marriage certificate for confirmation of what is found.
The 1881 census is free to search, surely?

oh i don't no, interesting :-) i havent seen this surname used before in the family tree. The family names definetly match though. Thank you.

Could it just be an error in documenting the surnames, ive seen that before?

Andrew Report 3 Nov 2011 18:09

Looks like the enumerator made an error with the family in 1901. All the chilfren registered as Allingham.

As the youngest child on the 1911 census (which you already had) was born in 1906/5, you are looking for his death between 1904 and 1911. (Unless his wife had misbehaved)
