Yes, Janice! That would be THE ONE I POSTED several days ago in the other thread, where I said:

"There are two possibilities in the 1871 census, and I would guess this one:"

and posted exactly that 1871 census info. And then observed that there was "Only the *other* Frank in birth records".


Hey, hotchoc, YOU'RE EVER SO WELCOME!!!!

Why anybody wants to do work for you that has already been done for no thanks or even acknowledgement, I wouldn't know.

I'm curious about "someone suggested his name may be incorrect".

What, was there yet another thread?

You do realise, hotchoc, that you didn't so much as acknowledge that you had noticed the info I put in your other thread, which has now been duplicated here?

Unless that wrong-name remark refers to my suggestion that he might have been registered under his mother's surname and used his father's, or vice versa ...

What can the meaning of this possibly be??

Was there something wrong with this thread? --

Can somebody please help me to find Francis Middleton on the 1881 census please? He was born in 1864 Plymouth Devon (Francis also fathers name) Making him approx 17.

Was there really some reason to invite other GR members to do all the same work all over again????

I'm sorry, but no, you do not just start a new thread because for some reason you didn't like what you got in the previous thread, and not bother mentioning the previous thread and all the info provided in it. This is appallingly rude, and AGAINST THE RULES OF THIS SITE.

Thank you every body you are so kind in helping me.
In the 1891 census he is Franceis middleton (wife sarah) Brixham
In 1881 census he is noted as Frank Middleton from Plymouth living in Brixham (it should read Francis! and not Frank. there where the confusion lies.
So it will be Francis Middleton age 6 in the 1871 census x

Does he marry ? perhaps we can find him on a later census for you first then work backwards.
