I am trying to find information about my husband's great grandfather who at the 1901 census was reported to be in the Transvaal. His wife's name was Martha Warwick, born in 1870 in Birmingham and was living at 1 Lime Grove in Aston, Birmingham with her 5 sons at the 1901 census. Sons were Ernest, Percy, Thomas, Albert and Samuel. They had a boarder - Phoebe Mills( could be Willis,difficult to tell from handwriting) aged 12

We're not absolutely sure. His first 2 children were born in Ipswich, Suffolk; his wife was born in Birmingham in 1870 so he could have been born about the same era.Today,we have found a military record of H.Warwick who was born in Ipswich and died in the Boer war in 1900. That would explain why he's not in the 1901 census, but we don't understand why there's no record of him in the 1891 census.
