Ok I refuse to give up, tempted but I will not yield. Still at it. Does anyone have Census or any other information for Clayton WR Yorkshire. Parish of St John's, 9 Druid Street for Cockcroft. Thanks Ingrid

Hi, The 1901 census is on line at www(.)pro(.)gov(.)uk the index is free but you have to pay to download the full details. Hope this helps, Gwynne

a search for Clayton Wakefield returns just 2 folk at 1 address - both b;1850 Sarah Cockcroft a textile weaver and Atkinson Cockcroft a tailor. - - or could it be Clayton with Frickley a few miles away just 3 folk there at 1 address Martha b:1845 Edith 1886 and Ernest 1876 a cattleman on farm - you would have to pay to find the street names - hope it helps

Ingrid, you can also use 'address search' to pick up the correct household if you are not sure which of the above is yours. See menu on the left of the 1901 census site. Marian
