Member Since: May 2007 Posts: 96 Send Message	Joan, Many thanks for your time.... I guess they could have been "in transit" .. they certainly moved around a lot. Its not crucial, just would have been nice to see where they were!

Member Since: June 2004 Posts: 2,345 Send Message	Iris, I can't find this family on the 1891 census--it's possible they were in between residences during the time the census was taken. Joan

Member Since: May 2007 Posts: 96 Send Message	Lew... I thought that at first, but he's not a son, he's a boarder. I have looked for other Joy's born in Austria but can't find any, he must be a nephew or something, but not sure where the connection is at the moment.
