ON THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THEV'E LEFT HOME, IVE SEARCHED THEIR NAMES & THEY SEEM TO HAVE VANISHED OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH. IF TRIED FAMILY SEARCH & FREE BMD. THERE NAMES ARE (IN 1901) ANNIE AGE ABOUT 36 FREDERICK AGE ABOUT 32 ALICE AGE ABOUT 29 DAVID AGE ABOUT 24 ELIZABETH AGE ABOUT 21 MY G GRANDFATHER WAS LISTED AS THE ONLY CHILD LIVING WITH HIS PARENTS IN 1901 CAN ANYONE HELP? ELAINE XX

ELAINE HOW CAN I TELL WHICH ONE IS THE RIGHT ONE? I THINK ALL OF THE FAMILY WERE FROM LONDON. THE BOYS SHOULD BE EASIER TO FIND BUT GOD KNOWS WHERE THEY ARE!!

Hi Elaine I found one of my relatives who had left home by the 1901 census on the 1901 Online site. Fortunately she had not got married. I entered First Name, Surname, Gender and the place where she was born in Place Keywords. You will obviously know where your rellies were born if you have them on the 1881 census. If any of the girls have got married you will need to enter First Name, Gender, Age and Where Born. This will narrow it down if not give you a result. Hope this helps. Jeanette:-)

Elaine, Can you get someone to check the 1901 census locally? I have a printout taken from a library- held microfilm, which I paid for by contacting the library in what I knew was the right area. It shows a husband, wife and children but the wife is nowhere to be found on the index online. Maybe some of your family got left out too. Gwyneth

Elaine. Why dont you check out that site i put on might be in the errors. Mary

THANKS ALL I WILL TRY SOME OF YOUR SUGGESTIONS. IM STILL FAIRLY NEW TO ALL THIS & GETTING STUCK AN AWFUL LOT ELAINEXX

BUT ANNIE, FREDERICK,DAVID & ELIZABETH ARE NOWHERE TO BE FOUND IVE TRIED KNICKNAMED FOR THEM LEAVING THIS N THAT OUT ECT. BUT STILL NO LUCK sorry ive written in upper case again forget my head if it wasn't screwed on!! elaine x

Elaine I think I've found your David on 1901 David NEWLEY 24 born Battersea living in Enfield with wife Emily aged 22. Not sure from above messages where your Frederick was born but there's also a Frederick Newley aged 33 born Bethnall Green living in Leyton with wife Minnie aged 31.

Helen It seems to match. only thing according to the 1891 census, frederick was born in blackfriers , david was born in battersea, the ages match, so maybe the second names were mis-spelt. but it seems unusual for both of their names to be mis-spelt as they were in two different households!! maybe the person doing the census at the time was deaf or had a speach inpediment!! ( only joking!) elainexx

Elaine I think it's the right David, I'll have another go at Fred now I know his birthplace.

Got him I think! Frederick Clemley 32 born Blackfriars, band cutter Fanny 31 born India Frederick 3 born Edmonton Cicely 9m born Edmonton George 25 born Pentonville (brother?) All living in Edmonton

it just may be them i will ask my uncke to pick his brains to see what he can remember. the children of the this family would have been his cousins. many thanks elaine
