Jim Sutton is the resident expert on here for finding folk in 1911. I saw your help with others.
Thank you Allison and Dion. Jim knows how to search for people and get other family members names FREE
.
However Eric Stanley Reginald Brown was born 367 Chapel Road Willesden 5th May 1912 which may help. Eric moved to Middlesbrough area and married my aunt Mary Spark.
Eric was living in North Ormesby at the time of his marriage.

My mum told me his parents had 18 children. Im trying to find out if this is correct and get their names.
I have found.
Ivy A Brown 1915 june qt West Ham mother Hawkins 4a 272
Violet L A Brown 1915 mar qt West Ham mother Hawkins4a 174
Obviously they cant both be to Rachel Hawkins

2 marriages.
Rachel L E Brown 1919 sep qt West Ham to John Lloyd 4a 687.
Rachel L E Brown 1922 dec qt Stockton to William C Elliott 10a 154.

Stockton is very close to Middlesbrough

Death for a Rachel Brown 1950 Middlesbrough no cert for this

I'm relatively new to this but didn't think 1911 census was generally available yet. The nearest would be the 1901 census. Is that any help as I'm happy to have a look for you.
