I'm not seeing a Thomas Carter born 1909/1910 Ecclesall Bierlow on the 1911 census.

Even if i did........there is no way of knowing if he is actually your Grandfather.

Do you have any other info about him?

Do you know if he had any siblings?

It might be in your best interest to purchase a copy of his marriage cert, which will hopefully give you information as to who his father was, and his fathers occupation.

The best place to purchase certificates is online here...

http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/

Certificates cost £9. 25p.

Thomas carter definitely had siblings but unfortunately we are unsure of their names, all we know is he married norah rhodes in 1931.

Wooopeee

Well done for finding your way back to this thread Clare.

I think you will need to purchase the marriage cert.

Clare Report 3 Jan 2014 21:17

Thomas carter maybe had a brother walter and a sister nellie.

PricklyHolly

PricklyHolly Report 3 Jan 2014 22:32

Do you know if Walter and Nellie were older or younger than Thomas?

Obviously if they were younger......they wont appear with Thomas on the 1911 census.
