Thank you ever so much Vera

are all the children on that 1891 census listed as children of Henry and Margaret?

and does it give William or Henry's occupation at all?

Ian
Did you notice on the 1901 census on the page that William and Emily are on Williams father and mother are there at the top of the page....?

ceri Report 30 Jun 2009 14:01

i think that the William with Henry and Margaret as his parents are the right ones...but then where does that mean William is just before his marriage in 1891?

I see that the 1881 census you posted has a Arthur listed i wonder if that is the Arthur that married Martha and had the daughter named Edith...?

I wonder if they are both relations...?

Thanks for your help on this

Ian,
Looks like the 1881 and the 1901 might be correct......because of the place they are living....Raveley..........
