My grandfather was Frank Albert Blake born on 22nd April 1889 (we are told) he had three sisters annie elsie and rose and one brother edward. I have tried on the 1891 census on ancestry ut cant find him, his parents were William and Ann Blake (nee Osmond) possibly in Wiltshire as again we are told that he was born in salisbury (i am applying for his birth and marriage certs but whilst im waiting) if any one looking on the 1891 site and could possibly have a look i'd be grateful

There is a person with the name and place of birth listed on 1901 census aged 12. I don't have credit left to look at the details for you but someone may have spare credits that they can't use and would take a look for you. Karen

heather i've got some credit left.would you like me to look it up for you.if so give me the details and i will do it sue

Thanks ladies, i did find him on the 1901 Census with his mother Annie Charwoman and a sister beatrice (although she is not on my list prepared by one of his sons who is now aged 88 and very frail) i was hoping to find him on the 1891 census so that i could find out where his father William was from as no info - i will just have to wait for the certificates (heres hoping that his name was correct) thanks again Heather

Hevi, Do you know the DOBs of the brothers and sisters? Crista

Hi Crista no sorry i dont all i know is that they are older than frank with the exception of rose. my only info on this branch is a tree that my uncle (now aged 88) started he had loads of info on his mothers side but only his fathers dob dom and dod with his brother and sisters. I may just have to wait for his birth certificate to come through and then at least i will know what part of the country i am dealing with. thanks for asking hevi

he's been found thanks everyone and specially Shelli hevi xx
