I am able to find many references for all names on 1901 census, but haven't enough credits remaining to do a 'trial and error' search. Where is Owerby - can't find any ref. Try Advanced search again and see what you come up with. Hazel

Susan, I don't know anyway after 1901 except by finding the local parish records. Someone more expert may be able to help you. Good luck!
