Would somebody mind having a look at the 1911 census for me please to see if they could find -

Golding Bird Collet born 1852 in Worthing & his wife Minnie.

Thank you very much

I don't have access, but on the free site there is a Golding Bird LEACH of about that age....living in East Preston area.

Is this the same person.....?
EDIT
Sorry...My mistake... Mr LEACH is much younger.

Gwyn - how strange, with Christian names like Golding Bird, I can only think that it is the same person and Worthing is in the district of East Preston but where on earth Leach came form??
Thank you.

Patchem, thank you for looking it up but I have seen the 1901 census

Gwyn - Golding Bird Collett was a doctor ... maybe he delivered Golding Bird Leach?? Poor little baby being called that!!

There is record of his will on Ancestry too do you have that?

He left £17,735 18s 3d, one of the executors was Gilbert Golding Collett Major RAMC (presumably a relative also a medical man)

Died 28/11/1920 in Church Street Home Bath
