Am trying to create my family tree, but am stuck. My family originates from Beveley, Telford, Shropshire. My grandfather was John Poulter. His children were William, Clifford ( my father ) Sidney, Wilfred, Elsie & Lilian. I think my grandfather was born around 1870.

Hi Ronald,
I've just had a quick look at the Census returns in Ancestry.com and think I may have found your grandfather.
It's the 1901 Census and the address is given as Beveley (in the Road/Street column), Wombridge, Wellington.
The occupants are:-
John Poulter 30 Coal miner born Wellington
Rose A. 30
Lilian M. 7
Florance E. 6
John W. 3
William C. 1
Do you think theses could be yours?
There is also an entry for 1881 showing what could be your grandfather and HIS parents.
Do you have access to Ancestry.com? If not, I would be happy to have another look for you and pass on the details. My email address is

Hope this helps.
Terry
