Trying to help a friend find her great grandfather. Could someone please look up a James SESSFORD born 1874 Liverpool on the 1891 census. We have him on the 1901 census married and as a child on the 1881 census but his father was away at the time. Hopefully the 1891 census will reveal his father as Thomas. Many thanks |

1881 was only posted for reference as I did realise that you had the details. Sometimes it does help to look for children when doing a search. James and Thomasina can be found on the 1901 Maureen |

I've seen the 1901 census, James is married by then, and I think his mother Mary had died and possibly his father had remarried, if he was a Thomas then we've found him on the 1901 census but just hoping that the 1891 will reveal his father a marine engineer at home and not away this time. The we will know if he is Thomas or not. |

Thanks for trying, The Thomas on the 1901 census that we think it is was born in Manchester c1852. Looks like we've drawn a blank. |

Tried a seach on findmypast but not much joy. 1891 they only suggest these three for Thomas using variation of the surname Sessford with age of 40 +/- 10 years. Places shown are registration districts and not places of birth CESSFORD, Thomas 33 M Easington CESSFORD, Thomas H 43 M Reading SEASFORD, Thomas 36 M Cockermouth No matches at all on Thomasina Maureen |
