This family is proving to be difficult as I couldnt find them on the 1891 census either but someone on here found them for me. If anyone could help I would be very grateful Thanks Jayne

Member Since: April 2003 Posts: 339 Send Message	Thanks Gwyneth That sounds like him. But it doesnt fit with the 1881 census that I found. I think that you are right though and I will have to go back and look on the 1881 again. Did you get any of the page numbers so I can copy the page I like keeping these in my family file. If you havent it doesnt matter. I am thankful enough that you found him Thankyou very much Jayne
