I am looking for a family on the 1901 census, have done lots of variations of spellings etc and I still can't find them, its driving me insane. If any one can help I would really appreciate it.

Henry J Parsons - age 29 c1862 Ashwater Devon - Miller
Ann Parsons - age 23 c1868 Rill Mill, Cornwall
Myria B Parsons - age 5 c1886 Plymouth, Devon

Thanks Nicola

Well, looks like them 1911 so still in the country I guess! (Same occ for Henry and birthplace for Ann). Or were they in Spain?? Check out last 2 children.

Wow that was quick thank you :)

Looking at the information that you have given, it looks that way...I'm now itching to find out why the family moved to spain. I wonder what happened to Myria she isn't with them, she would of been about 15 at the time of the 1901 census, I even tried looking to see if she was either with relative or a servant, but nothing came up. She married my Great Great Grandad in sept quarter 1911 in Nottingham.

Thanks Nicola

Is this Myra in l9ll - there is a marriage for a Myra Bessie - September l9ll on free bmd - perhaps Myra went to Spain with them, I can't find the family on the passenger lists.

Thank you very much for that information, I really appreciate it...

It's an interesting one this isn't it? Can't imagine many millers ventured over to Spain! And they must have been there for a few years.

Can anyone find them on the passenger lists - I have tried all combinations and have had no luck - wonder why they ended up in Nottingham
