Me again,

Helena Kershaw Court B1863 Folkestone, Kent. Up until 1891 Helena was not married, she was living with her parents Stephen and Mary Court. Could I have help with 1901 Census please or she might even have died.
Robert Dale Court B1867 Folkestone, Kent. He was also living with his parents up until 1891 so could I have the same 1901 lookup for him please.On 1891 Robert was a Silversmith and Jeweller.

Regards Julia

Thanks Ozbird, that helps me a lot.

I just had another deletion, I wonder what that was!!

I have another problem that I can't seem to solve. It is for William Brandford Court B1823 Folkestone, married Harriet Ann 1848. They are both on 1851/1861 census.. In 1871 no sign of Harriet, William Snr & son lodging while his sister Susanna is living with her nieces. Haven't found an 1881 census (strange) but in 1891 William is living with his daughter Susy and next door is his 2nd wife Annie K aged 36 and 5 children which could be theirs or hers from another marriage. I will have another go on the 1881 Census, have only looked on Family Search. Do you think you could help me on this please.

Regards

Julia

There's a good chance this is the other couple as Fred is around the right age. This means Robert probably married Alice.

Frederick Cook Annie E abt 1862 Hounslow, Middlesex, England Head Isleworth Middlesex

The marriage you have just given me would be to Eleanor Alice Everett as the surname rang a bell, checked up 1891 census for Robert and she was living with him and his parents in Folkestone under the name of Alice E Everett Milliners shop woman, so it looks like the 1901 census would be for Robert and Alice or Eleanor!! That might help.

I also left a message before you entered Roberts family, sorry.
Thanks Julia.

I wonder ...... so obviously this is just coincidence.

Lots of Robert Courts died between 1891 & 1900, no Robert Dales though. Searching for Alice Eleanor know to see if there was any children.

Re William Brandford. I was the one that helped with that branch. I searched everywhere for Harriet but couldn't find her. Couldn't find a death either.

I have just checked through the 1881 census for William, found it as born Doverone. Should have checked it more thoroughly. It says he is lodging at 3 Saxton Street, Dover - Examining Officer Customs so it is the correct one. Also claims married. What do you think about this, you found 1891 with Annie K living next door and we assumed it was his family but maybe just another relation of some kind. From 1871 - 1901 William is Lodging but still classed as married so perhaps William and Harriet seperated. I think perhaps I might look for deaths now then for them both.
Thanks for the birth, sounds correct.

Back to William - Annie K was completely mistranscribed. She was Annie K. Woods. Do you think she's connected?
