Hi Kenneth, When you reply you need to go into your old thread and click on Add Reply - then put your reply on there. Otherwise there becomes too many places for people to look! You ask if the 1901 census would tell you about the second marriage..... Do you mean the 1901 census I posted on your other thread (the thread called ''The Elusive Sinclair !!!!'')?? The family with wife Sarah??? There is a possible marriage of Hugh Sinclair to a Sarah as follows: Marriages Mar 1891 Bowen William Thomas Chorlton 8c 1256 Dutton Sarah Chorlton 8c 1256 Dutton Sarah Elizabeth Chorlton 8c 1256 Sinclair Hugh Chorlton 8c 1256 Wood Elizabeth Ann Chorlton 8c 1256 But I don't know if this is the marriage for the people on the 1901 census, or if that is indeed what you are talking about on this thread!! There was a Thomas Sinclair on the 1901 census record on the other thread, but he was slightly older than you were expecting, aged 9 in 1901 (from your fathers death cert). Do you know when your father celebrated his birthday (what date in the year I mean)?? There are these birth reg's that could fit to the boy who was the son of Hugh and Sarah: Births Jun 1892 Sinclair Thomas Rothbury 10b 478 Sinclair Thomas Tynemouth 10b 266 Births Dec 1892 Sinclair Thomas Newcastle T. 10b 1[53]3 Births Dec 1893 Sinclair Thomas Edwin Newcastle T. 10b 119 The Dec 1892 looks like the best fit at present for the son of Hugh and Sarah. However, didn't you have reason to believe your father's mother was Emma Lawrence???????? I am going to post the above details on the other ''Elusive'' thread, as then I can see what I've written here along with the other stuff!! If I'm barking up the wrong tree let me know!! Please could you reply on the other thread? Merry - PS - Ah, I've just realised why you have opened another thread!!!! No mention of the malt on this thread??!

Thanks everyone for your replies. Merry, The 1881 census looks good. Would the 1901 census tell me about the second marriage. I have looked on the 1901 Scotlands census but can't find how I get on the 1901 English census.
