Hi all I have a John Beaumont age 1 on 1891 born Stonehouse Devon & on 1901 census a Joseph Beaumont age 11 born Stonehouse Devon. I couldn't find a death for either so was wondering if it is the same person. My problem is if this is the same person which one is he as there is a John Edward F Beaumont born Dec 1889 & a Joseph Henry Beaumont born Dec 1891. I will post the census entrys in a mo. Lorraine

Lorraine as the family in 1891 & 1901 are living at the same address 17 Water Lane I think you can assume they are the same people. Georgina.

Logically he is the John Beaumont born 1889. The on eborn in Dec 1891 would not show on 1891 census. The earlier one would still be under 2 years old therefore showing as age 1. Or am I missing something here? Jill

If he was born Dec Q 1889 that would make him somewhere between 15 months and 18 months old at time of 1901 census. That's the one I'd go for. Jill

Thanks for your input Jill, I've been getting really confused with this family as some of the other children had different names on each census & it took me a while to sort it out. But with this one, as I found a John & a Joseph born in the right place I did wonder if they were the same person or if both were sons of this family. Thanks again everyone for your help. Lorraine
