Thanks Rosemary That's not him in 1881. Father is Reuben, mother is Elizabeth. I have Reuben and Elizabeth in Tottenham and James isn't with them! Don't think that's my James in 1891 then cos I have him in 1901 with his mother in Essex. Back to the drawing board then....thanks everyone! Lou

Thanks Helen I'll take another look now I have some ideas. I've found him in 1901 staying with his mother in Essex but down as Married. Occupation line has been left blank! Need to try and find a possible in 1881 and/or a marriage to give me some clues Lou

Innkeeper would make perfect sense Daddy is a Licenced Victualler Now if his address had been the Crucifix & Garlic in Stepney, we'd have known what he did!

It's what the enumerator has written that's confusing me! His birthplace is given as St Geo in the East on the index but it says Islington on the returns!

Helen Report 15 May 2005 22:39

if checked for you, looks like Inpebreken. It'd hard to understand the writting sometimes.
