I am trying to find Beatrice May James B.1897 in Stoke Works, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire. She was my grandfathers sister, he was William(Willie) Philip James B.1902 in Stoke Works.

I can find her on the 1901 census but cant find what has happened to her since. Unable to find her on the 1911 census she would be 13ish around this time.

Any help would be appreciated.

Also thanks to everyone who gives their time doing look ups its a great help to novices.

Belinda.

Could this be the right family? It does say Mabel on the record though. What were her parents names?

No, I see it is the correct family but there is a daughter, Mabel. Wonder where Beatrice is then.
