i am wondering if ive got it all wrong now
the 1881 census is correct

many thanks

Joyce

do you know where May and Edmund were in 1911 or Edmund's occupation? This seems to be the closest I can find, although Edmund's wife is Mabel

1911 census - household transcription
Person: MCDOWELL, Edmund
Address: 14 Devizes Road Salisbury

Name Relation Condition/ Yrs married Sex Age BirthYear Occupation Where Born

MCDOWELL, Edmund Head Married M 28 1883 Baker Journeyman Devon Devonport
MCDOWELL, Mabel Wife Married7 years F 26 1885 Hants Havant
MCDOWELL, Maisie Daughter Dau F 5 1906 Hants Southsea
REYNOLDS, Percy Boarder Married M 30 1881 Jobmaster Hants Havant
REYNOLDS, Blanche Boarder Married9 years F 29 1882 Hants Havant
REYNOLDS, Owen Boarder M 8 1903 Hants Havant
REYNOLDS, Reginald Boarder M 5 1906 Hants Southsea
LUSH, Minnie Visitor Single F 16 1895 Hants Gosport
LUSH, Leslie Boarder Single F 16 1895 Wilts Salisbury

this is incorrectly transcribed it should say REYNOLDS, Leslie Boarder Single M 3 months 1895 Wilts Salisbury.

Also Leslie, Reginald and Owen were filled in as "son" and then crossed out and "border" written above it so possibly sons of Percy and Blanche


looking for a 1902 marriage of Blanche and Percy Reynolds, I found

>>>Blanche Susannah Bailey 1902 Portsmouth (1900 Onw) Hampshire
George Bedford 1902 Portsmouth (1900 Onw) Hampshire
Elizabeth Chambers 1902 Portsmouth (1900 Onw) Hampshire
>>>Percy James Reynolds 1902 Portsmouth (1900 Onw)Hampshire

although they are listed as borders, could Blanche and May/Mabel be sisters?
