Hi there,

Could someone look up Herbert Winser 1906 + 3 Grimsby in the 1911 census. Really want to find out if this is the person i need, but can't go back to the next census with parents, as the name is spelt wrong. Can anyone shed light on this for me. Parents Elizabeth and Fred

many thanks :-D

WINSER, Fred Charles Head F 52 1859 Dock Labourer Grimsby
WINSER, Herbert Son M 5 1906 Grimsby
280 Hope ST,

5 children born, only one living

NB - no 'years married' on the image. Either Elizabeth who fiilled in the form couldn't remember, or didn't have a 'bit of paper' :-)

Hi there,

Thank you for looking.

found the death of Elizabeth but spelt Windsor, now the Frederick C is spelt winsor, so this is why i'm having trouble finding them or children in the 1901. If she had another 4 children, they could have been born between census, but if they couldn't write, it was up to the enumerator to spell it, hence the problems i am now facing. If i knew how long they had been married, i might have been able to find a place of marriage, but can't find that either.

:-D
