On the 1911 census there is Edgar Burraston age 28 married born City of London, listed as NEON child in the relationship column.

Does anyone know what this might mean?

Thanks, Pat.

If you look at image, he is only 8 and unmarried!! He is a nurse child. The transcriber has taken info from next line.
Have sent correction off. A pity though, like the idea of a Neon Child! Very 60's.

Thanks for that info, I only have the transcript and have not seen the mage.

If you have acess could I ask you to see if you could find Henry Gaines born 1859 in Pickering, as he is not with his wife Annie on the trancript, I think he should also be in Ware Herts where she and the family areliving.

Many thanks.
