Hi
I am looking for the MAY family (Heston Middx) in 1891
I have found them in 1861/71/81 and George and daughter Edith in 1901 but am missing 1891 census details
George b. circa 1837 Heston middx area
Ann (wife) nee Webb c 1836 Heston Middx
probably at home will be Emma b. 1875 Brentford
Edith b. 1881 Brentford
possibly Stephen b circa 1873
there were other children but will probably have left home by then

Apart from Stephen I have found birth details of siblings and Ann and Georges marriage, I need to research their births. I would like to see the 1891 census just to complete my trail, as I think that Ann may have died within these 20 years, but I have been unable to find it on Ancestry, maybe fresh eyes will help.

Thank you for your time...mandy
