Find Ancestors

Sorry had to nip out, wow so much. give a lil time to read thru posts. N thanks all for helping

Maureen,
God bless them indeed.
So thankful for all the past census.

We have just received our 2011 census forms to fill in.
Maybe we should change our names , just to confuse our descendants.
Knowing my family and their possible off spring they will not even look for me. (boohoo)

Shenanagins indeed meethinks !!

It looks like Eva 'may' have been born a 'Green' too ?

Births Dec 1902
Green Eva Elizabeth Birmingham 6d 178

There is only one possible Eva Williams and she was reg. in Sollihull:

Births Sep 1902
Williams Eva May Solihull 6d 659

Jan,
"What are the chances of a minnie with husband having similar occupation living in the same house? And a child born there too!"
I'd say.......none. And the child is listed as "under 1 month".

Val,
God bless them,but the enumerators had nothing to do with the 1911. (supposedly!)

Maureen

This IS a strange one!!

Has anyone found them on 1901 yet? - I haven't !

Maybe Herr should be Head.
There is a Holloway Head road in Birmingham.

I thought that the enumerator may have put next doors name instead of Green.

I wouldn't dismiss that Williams census just yet. Not completely impossible they have changed their name for some reason. What are the chances of a minnie with husband having similar occupation living in the same house? And a child born there too!
Jan

Hi Val,

LOL! I really wasn't questioning the name (Williams...although that will be a big ???)..it was the Holloway Herr and CB that caught me off guard.

Maureen

1911 census taken 2/4/1911.
So George frederick Green should be on one.

Maryb

Storm,

do you know the names of any of your grandfather's siblings?

Val

I saw this as well and looked at the image, there is no doubt it says Williams.

I'm not going to deal with the transcription errors here!!!!

Expecting:
Joseph head silversmith
Minnie wife
children perhaps, not sure

address

Good morning.
Received my grandfathers birth cert this morning. At first I thought I'd ordered the wrong one. I was looking for George Frederick Green. Got the index, sent for the cert that duly arrived today. Under the name column it states Joseph omg.
There's a 10th column Baptismal name if added after reg, here it states George Frederick phew. So I now have his mothers name. Minnie Green nee Gibbons. I have a match for the marriage index in sepQ 1898.
I have then looked at the 1911 census but I can't get a hit using Genes.

Could someone with access to 1911 @FMP look up for me I'd be grateful.
I have no hits at Genes using either minnie or Joseph. I don't have an age for either but they appear to be married in 1898 possibly.
I have an address also, but no address search @ Genes :( .
George Frederick was born 17/3/1911 at 153 Bridge Street West, birmingham. Which is also the fathers address on the cert. Sub-district on birth cert is St George with georges fathers profession stated as a silversmith if this helps
