Thanks Kathryn, that worked, sorry to be so dense, not used the 1911 before.
Anyway it solved a bit of a mystery.

Okay, go into the full person search page. Put only ingram in the surname box. In the location boxes (not birthplace) put the county as glamorganshire and the district/other as pontypridd. In the other members boxes put Kate as first name and ingram as surname and tick the 'exact' boxes for both. Press search and you should get all the children.

Well, I am a bit puzzled, thanks for that. As far as I know and there may well be more children

Kate Ingram born Newport widow born 1885
Clara Evelyn born December 1910

I also had a Possible Lily May born Dec 1908

ooh, I suspect I need to buy some credits then.

You're using too much information. Try a basic search on clara ingram born 1910 +/- 1yr and there are three possibilities, the last of which is three months old born Pontypridd. She's in the same household as Kate Ingram, who you have, and Lillian aged 7, Sidney aged 5 and Charles aged 3.

Kate

I am trying to make a free search for my OH's Grandmother in the 1911.

I can find her:
Kate Ingram born Newport 1885 resident Pontypridd

No problem there.

Why is it putting in OH's Mother
Clara Evelyn Ingram born 1910 Pontypridd brings up nothing found. Am I doing something wrong?
