Could somebody kindly look for any Winter family members in the Colchester Road, Leytonstone in the 1911 census please

Many thanks :-)

Do you have any first names? There are a lot of Winters in Leytonstone.

Well I am looking for a John but I'm not sure if he was born before 1911 but I've been told they lived in Colchester Road so maybe some of the family may be there

:-S

If you are not sure if he was born before 1911 how sure are you of where he was born

Sorry for the delay - I had to leave the computer for a while.

Colchester Road WAS under Walthamstow but unfortunately there was no Winter family living there at the time.

Sorry, Findmypast is playing up for me and I can't get onto the births at the moment. I'll have a look later if it starts working properly.
