Think my eyesight is better than yours!

Think it looks like 11 as the last 1 seems to have a line under it, but it looks like the underline separating each person, and a line crossed over it like the others???

Slowcoach Cassy :)

You do try it on Cassy :)
Catch me if you can slowcoach!

Anyway could you have a look at that 1891 image on George age 4??
Does it say 4 or 11?

Thanks Vivienne and Cassy for 1901 census details. As you say Vivienne can hardly be a son George of 4 years old. Their son George was born 1879.

Unfortunately not.

FannyByGaslight Report 20 Nov 2009 19:58

She does not appear to be able to make her mind up on where she was born then!!
Her marriage cert would help to find her with her fathers name and occupation,if it gives one of course..

Do you have the 1891 /1901 census info?

Genevive

Genevive Report 20 Nov 2009 19:56

All very confusing. As you say if I get marriage certificate will find out her father's name.

Genevive

Genevive Report 20 Nov 2009 19:53

Have looked again at your details, difference in place of birth. Got Brighton from 1881 Census.
