Could some one have a quick peep at this one :-S


I was looking for a "Emma Newman, bn 1893, at Barrow upon Soar " using GR Search and got this...

There are no results for "Emma Newman" in 1911 Census For England & Wales
? There were no matches found.


I eventually found her by omitting her birth date and found that...
GR`s transcription for 1911 census has Emma Elizabeth Newman age 67 living with her father aged 55.
That would mean Emma was 12 yrs old before her father was born.

Just shows again, you cannot be 100% certain of the validity of any transcriptions.

(To err is human).... that's OK by me, `cos I is divine innit :-D

Bum........I forgot to ask.........

How are you connected to these people?
Have you done any research yourself?
Where have you looked?
Are you sure of the correct spelling?
This should really be posted on the Find Ancestors Board!
Did William have a wooden leg?
Was Ellen with child at the time of the census?
Why didn't you include Ellen's middle name in your post?

That reminded me of my friend.

A few years back he was off work for a period of time with a bad back.

He was desperate to return to work but needed the "All Clear" from the Doctor.

The Doctor asked........."How are your relations?"

To which he replied..........."I get to see them every week!!!"
