I tried to check on my grandmother in the 1911 census and got no matches. I then realised that I hadn't got her in 1901 either. I wonder if anyone can find her in 1901 for me, and I will then use those details to hopefully trace her in 1911. Here she is in 1891:

Thanks very much! EDIT - Just a thought, apart from Welwyn, she might pop up in Islington, north London, as this is where she married in 1919.

masami - that is brilliant! George and Mary Titmuss (spelt various ways) are her grandparents! Thank you so much - would never have found that one. EDIT - just looked at the image and realised that George is only 34, obviously not her grandfather, but the right family nevertheless!

Margaret - Thank you, I have just found that one myself using the technique we are not talking about!!
