Find Ancestors

yes Carrie and Clara were sisters along with a Violet and a Gertrude.
Loads of brothers too, very prolofic family.
Carrie moved to Hull eventually, Clara to Denaby, Gertrude married and stayed in the area. Clara had a daughter and called her Carrie, and Carrie the elder had a daughter and called her Clara( such imagination.)
I then find that Clara according to the 1911 census has a daughter named Violet. What a tangled web they wove.
Thanks for any help Its been a bit of a discovery day.

1911 census

HOUSEHOLD CLOUGH CARRIE F 1905 6 Doncaster Yorkshire West Riding
HOUSEHOLD CLOUGH CLARA JANE F 1876 35 Doncaster Yorkshire West Riding

HOUSEHOLD CLOUGH GEORGE W M 1901 10 Doncaster Yorkshire West Riding
HOUSEHOLD WALKER VOILET F 1896 15 Doncaster Yorkshire (born Sheffield)

Actually I think you may have hit on the answer as Clara's sister Carrie went to live in Hull in the 1930's to be with her brother!!
Thanks you are a star!!!!

Can onlt tell you Charles Walker b 1847 Knotting, second wife Charlotte, American citizen and Violets fathers parents unknown!!
A bit of a mystery.

So could she have gone to live with other family? What were her Grandparents called..I dont suppose you have both sides......

Gran and grampa lived in Swinton nr Rotherham.

Alfred and Violet were born before Clara married and until recently we only had hearsay over Violet. We have look up on 1911 census and found her living with mom and Violet was 15yrs old. So she must have been some where in 1901 unless they missed her off the 1901 or she was staying with gran in 1901!!

Do you have any other info on her such as why she was not living with her mom?

Thank you but I do not think this is the correct one as she is Violet with no other initial. There was a Violet M born the next year in Sheffield (as found both on FBMD, but mine was b 1895 Dec qtr.
