I wonder if anyone could have a look at the 1891 census for me for the following person :-
James Humphrey b.1869 Whitehaven, Cumberland
I have him in the 1881 census with his brother John aged 4, but there are no parents.
If anyone could help I would be very grateful
Thankyou Jayne

Hi Glitter Baby
Thankyou very much for your help.
I notice that on both census there is no father. Wonder were he was. Strange that he is not on either isnt it.
Could I please ask you a couple more questions :-
Was Mary married or a widow on the census and were was she born.
Were bridget and Maria born in Ireland and what was their relationship to Mary Ann.
I am asking about Ireland because I am wondering if James was there in 1891 as he isnt on the 1891 census, or was he somewhere with his father????????????
Its ok if you cant help me any further as you have already helped me with more than I dared ask.
Thankyou Jayne

If the right family in 1891 then Mary is listed as a widow.

Thankyou Glitter Baby.
You have given me so much information I am going to sit down with a brew now and take a proper look at it all.
At first glance it appears to me to be the right family.
I will let you know how I get on
Once again thankyou Jayne
