I think this is the family in 1901 (there are two Williams in the household - one is a son and the other a visitor. Frances is missing, but it says Thomas is married):- Name: William Abbott Age: 31 Estimated birth year: abt 1870 Relation: Son Father's name: Thomas Gender: Male Where born: Darlington, Durham, England Civil parish: Darlington Ecclesiastical parish: St John County/Island: Durham Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Education: Employment status: View image Registration district: Darlington Sub-registration district: Darlington ED, institution, or vessel: 30 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 210 Household Members: Name Age Alfred Abbott 20 Annie Abbott 36 - visitor Frederick Abbott 13 Thomas Abbott 32 Thomas Abbott 29 William Abbott 31 William Abbott 34 - visitor Selina Murton 19 - servant Source Citation: Class: RG13; Piece: 4618; Folio: 134; Page: 36 Kath. x

This is the family in 1881:- Name: Thomas Abbot Age: 9 Estimated birth year: abt 1872 Relation: Son Father's name: Thomas Mother's name: Frances Gender: Male Where born: Darlington, Durham, England Civil parish: Darlington County/Island: Durham Country: England Street address: 87 Park Street Education: Employment status: View image Occupation: Scholar Registration district: Darlington Sub-registration district: Darlington ED, institution, or vessel: 1 Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Alfred Abbot Arthur Abbot 2 Frances Abbot 31 George Abbot 4 Thomas Abbot 32 Thomas Abbot 9 William Abbot 11 The one with Mary Ann as a wife in 1901 is the wrong one so forget that one. I'll delete that reply so it doesn't confuse you. Kath. x

thanks kathleen. i think i found them in 1901 cencus but its a bit confusing as it says his father thomas was born in 1869 which cant be right as thomas jr was born 1872 and there seems to be two more abbotts in the cencus that i dont have in my tree and cant seem to work out from dates where they would fit in. its really confusing me now!!!!!! many thx sam!

This looks like his birth reference (it's the only one registered in Darlington at the right time:- Thomas Abbott Sept. qtr. 1871, Darlington, 10a, 15 You could always give his parent's names as a checking point (but only if you are certain of them). Makle sure you spell the mother's name correctly - Frances rather than Francis. As for the marriage and death, it is just a matter of searching the complete indexes at about the time you think he married or died. If you have no idea of dates then it will be more difficult, as although he was born in Darlington, he could have married or died anywhere. Kath. x
