Thanks for your help.

The Sydney in Helen's 1891 was a Florist's apprentice - bit different to a blacksmith's striker!!

Kim Report 9 Dec 2011 21:36

The 1911 was definitely right going by the marriage as father listed as Joshua Burls being correct.

MarieCeleste Report 9 Dec 2011 21:35

Kim, yes I think that's a different Sidney altogether. Is the one on the 1911 that I posted the right one, or is it the one in Helen's 1891?

Kim

Kim Report 9 Dec 2011 21:33

Aw now Helen posted 16.10 today a different Sidney???

Yours has the right year of birth and because the name has been spelt both ways either are possible but knowing his parents were both dead the workhouse was more likely.

Thanks

Not sure what you mean about the relationship of Elizabeth in 1891, because it looks like Sidney was in the workhouse then:

Re the 1911 census for Si(y)dney BURLS can you tell me where Harriet was born please as I cannot find a marriage for them on FreeBMD.

I have searched BURLS & BURLES SiDNEY & SyDNEY. None of them marry a Harriett.

Also on the 1891 census for Sydney Burls can you tell me what the relationship of Elizabeth Burls was to the head.

Thank you.
