The Sydney Welland found by SomersewtGirl and Helen is the only one to show up on ancestry using the criteria you ahve given

........... so unless there has been some terrible mistranscription or mis-recording, then you must have something wrong.



I even checked freebmd for births of a Sydney Welland .......... nothing more there. S welland (in case of different spelling) didn't show anyhthng either

Sue

go to the 1911 census site.

You can search on there for free, but you have to pay to look at the transcript or census image.

Go to Full Person Search

Click on Advanced search

Enter the names of one member of the family

Once you have found that person, make a note of the district where living

Go back to the search page, remove the forename and leave it blank

remove the birth year

add the information for the residence as noted from the census

add the name of the one you have found in Other members in the family


If you are lucky you will be able to get a listing of the family.




Noone is offering to do the searches on the census or sending images because it is so expensive ........ 10 credits to look at a transcript or 30 to look at the image .............. 60 credits cost £6.95

Helen in Bucks Report 13 Aug 2009 10:49

sorry, don't understand how the 1911 that Somerset girl found can be the correct family as the Sydney Welland in 1911 was born 1909 not 1891 as you put right at the beginning of the post

why did you think he was born in 1891 and why do you now think we have found the right one born 1909?
