24 Bruce Rd., Bromley, Poplar, Middlesex
Charles H. Warren, head, 27, manager coffee mills, born Middlesex, Tottenham
Annie, wife, 30, born Essex, Bumpstead
Florence, dau, 3, born Tottenham

No she has a mother called Louisa .... think this is where my confusion has come from as my Anne had siblings called Florence and Charles

I can't find Ethel on the 1901 census, not with parents Charles & Annie. 1901 census is RG13.

Annie Ellen G. was born August 1901 so wouldn't be on the 1901 census which was taken 31 March.

The baptism was on London records on Ancestry.

Hi Pamela
Hadn't thought of this as an option! Thank you :o) I know some answers will need to wait til I get the birth certificates

Are you sure they are sisters? It could be that they were cousins (i.e. children of two brothers) who happened to be born around the same time. I have an incidence of this in my family.

I have two births both in 1901
#1 is Ethel Elizabeth Warren Poplar Jan/Feb/Mar 1c 587
(Ethel died 1901 Jul/Aug/Sep Poplar 1c 381)

However Ethel appears on the 1901 and 1911 census but "Annie Ellen G Warren" didn't.
This confused me as she was a great grandma!
Her birth index is
Poplar Jul/Aug/Sep 1c 587 - same as ethel's but a diff quarter!?!?!
Had to check numerous times to make sure my eyes weren't to skew wiffy.
Would they be twins? Why diff quarters? A mystery but just would like anyone's thoughts on this mystery please?
Hope I have given enough info ....I will be applying for the birth certs and gawd knows why ethel appears on the census but annie doesn't
:oS
Thanks in advance
