Can someone please help me I am at my wits end!!!! I have received my granparents marriage cert through and I have tried to locate them on the 1901 census without sucess. My grandpa was called Louis Silverman, he was 34 in 1920 when he married so he would have been about 14 in 1901. His dads name was Jacob silverman although on the marriage cert it says he was at the time deceased. I have looked for ages and still no luck. Help Please. Bernie xxx

Bernice, Do you have an occupation for Jacob? Could be there were from Russia or Poland like a lot of the Silvermans. Crista

Bernice, Can't find any matches in 1891 or 1901. Could be they weren't in the country then. Crista
