Thank you Margaret. That looks like her. She must have died not longer after the census was taken. Many thanks.

Good heavens Sylvia. Stupid me assumed she must have died when I couldn't locate her on the 1891 census. Thank you. That'll teach me not to make assumptions.

Thank you very much Sylvia. I didn't even query Gertrude as once again I assumed she may have married..... and there they were living the life of riley and leaving Dad at home to cope with all those men !!.. Thank you very much indeed. I can give my brain a rest now and perhaps it may function better tomorrow.!!

Margaret Report 13 Nov 2007 21:21

That could well be Ronald. Where on earth is it - looks like a list for a prison, a workhouse or maybe a barracks. I am grateful Sylvia and I'll note this.

Margaret

It's a barracks.

I did look on the image to see his rank, but he was not on the page of the image it took me to.

I think you might have to search page by page on the image!


I can't find him on the 1891 ..... he could be in the army then and serving out of England and Wales???
